USB Extenders, who knew?!
Update Oct 2020: 17 months later, I have had zero problems with this cable and its performance. The computer it is connected to is powered on 24x7 therefore the cable has been in continuous use all this time. It has worked admirably, flawlessly, without any perceivable lag. I still see no need for USB 3, considering my use case.As an IT engineer, I've known since the late 90s that USB had cable length limitations of 5 meters / 16.4 feet. Enter my 2019 challenge of needing USB cable that's significantly longer - and without pesky USB hubs in the middle.This cable was perfect for what I needed and it has been consistently reliable. It's running from my Network/AV closet, into the attic, and down a wall to the living room. On that side of the cable is a Plugable USB 2.0 Hub. Attached to that Hub is an Xbox Wireless Adapter for Win10 and a Plugable Bluetooth 4.0 Adapter. This gives me the ability to do work on my PC (let's face it, I did it so I could play PC games) from the living room while keeping the equipment out of sight in a properly ventilated closet.I did give pause to consider a USB 3.0 extension cable, however none of the devices I'm using are USB 3.0, and I was unable to justify the jump in cost for "future proofing" .. what amounts to Bluetooth & Xbox behind a wall. 2.0 is still going to be around for a very long time and considering my use case, it was the sensible and cost-conscious way to go.Here's what I have attached to the cable - since it worked out great for me:* Plugable 4-port powered USB 2.0 Hub: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005P2BY5I* Plugable Bluetooth 4.0 LE Adapter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009ZIILLI* Microsoft Xbox Adapter for Windows: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ZB7W4QU

Working with a webcam
I use it for a Webcam in a conference room in a construction trailer. I ran the cable through a hole in the center of the room connected to a Lenovo Teams meeting PC, then under the trailer and up to another hole to a TV, where I set a Webcam. I've been using different USB extensions for over 10 years for construction trailers, and they just work, I hope this will also stay for a couple of years. Seems good quality and excellent price.

Didn't work for me.
This is for the AmazonBasics USB 2.0 Active Extension Cable Type A-Male to A-Female Long Cord - 32 Feet. Wasn't sure how to review this. I think it is a good product but it didn't work for me. I ordered this to connect a USB scanner to my PC from across the room. My PC wouldn't recognize the scanner with this cable. However, I found that that I could use any cable more than about 36 inches long. So I am thinking that the scanner has a very low power USB port. I kind of knew this going in but thought the active amplifier in the cable would overcome the lower power. I didn't. Amazon took back the cable no questions asked. So while I didn't really get what I wanted, the overall experience was positive.

Using for work headset
Job requires we use wired headset which limits us to one spot all day. This works with my hadset but decreases the quality of calls just a tad.

This isn't supposed to work, yet it does!
This cable isn't supposed to work. Per the USB spec, I should need a hub every 5m to not break the propagation delay limit. But here I am with a 10m cable driving my Schiit Modi (audio DAC) from my Macbook all the way on the other side of the room with absolutely no issues. I'm guessing that there's a simple hub at the Rx end of the cable. The cable also looks pretty good. It's relatively thin and flexible. I haven't done any testing to determine just how good this is or just how non-compliant the cable is, but for my application, it works like a charm. I'm also blown away by the ($15) price! Well done Amazon!
