AILKIN USB 3.0 Type A Male-to-Male Cable 10ft

This 10ft cable connects two USB Type A 3.0 ports for data transfer up to 5Gbps. It is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports. The PVC-coated cable is rated for over 45000 bends. No drivers are required for operation.

Suits peripheral links.

The cable links external hard drives, printers, cooling pads, hubs, cameras, DVD players, speakers and set-top boxes to a PC or laptop. It does not support charging devices, video transmission, or direct data transfer between two computers. Buyers needing power delivery or host-to-host links should look elsewhere.

5Gbps USB 3.0 data-only Type A connection

The single specification that decides fit is the 5Gbps USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male interface limited to data transfer. Verify both devices present a standard USB Type A port and require only data connectivity. Compatibility includes USB 2.0 and 1.1 hosts at reduced speed.

Questions about this item

What type of USB port must my device have to use this 10ft A-to-A cable?

Your device needs a standard USB Type A port. The cable has a male USB 3.0 Type A connector on each end, so it plugs directly into any USB A socket.

Will this cable work at full speed if I plug it into an older USB 2.0 port on my laptop?

Yes. The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports, but data will transfer at the slower port's maximum rate instead of the 5Gbps peak.

How can I confirm the cable is delivering 5Gbps performance after I connect my external SSD?

Run a large file transfer and check the sustained speed in your OS; if it approaches 5Gbps the link is operating at USB 3.0 rates.
