Yes - Meeting Class B with a USB cable attached
IS feasible. First things first...

Have you followed all the USB guidelines (such as
adding a CM choke in the signal lines)?

Subject: [SI-LIST] High speed USB cable

What charecteristics the high speed USB cable must have to pass FCC
Class B radiated emissions? We cannot add a ferrite core to the cable to
supress the emissions. The device is a self powered high speed (480 MHz)
USB device. From various testings it is established that the CM curent
flowing through the D+ & D- conductors of the USB cable causing the
failures in the radiated emission testing. The tests also established
that the CM current flowing through the 5.0 volts +ve & -ve conductors
of the USB cable is not at all contributing for the emissions.
              Is it feasible to have a high speed USB bus powered device
with 1.5 m long USB cable to meet FCC / CISPR ClassB radiated emission
limits (without a ferrite core attached to it).=20
