Connection type

This Belkin cable links a USB Type-B device such as a printer or scanner to a USB Type-A port on a computer or hub. The 1.8 metre length provides reach around desk obstacles while keeping the connection tidy. It is suited to home and office setups that still rely on the classic rectangular and square USB connectors.

Data rate

The cable supports the USB 2.0 standard with a maximum transfer speed of 480 Mbps. That bandwidth is the single figure that determines whether the cable can handle the throughput your peripheral requires. If a device needs the higher speeds of USB 3.0 or later, this cable will not meet that requirement.

Build integration

Gold-plated contacts and moulded strain relief are designed to maintain signal integrity and withstand repeated plugging. The cable works with USB-ready PC and Mac computers and is backward compatible with USB 1.1 ports. Buyers who need a USB-C or Micro-B connector, or who require USB 3.x throughput, should look for a different cable.

Questions about this item

What real-world transfer speed can I expect from the 480 Mbps rating?

The 480 Mbps figure is the theoretical maximum for USB 2.0; actual throughput is typically lower due to protocol overhead and device limitations.

Does the USB 2.0 interface limit what I can connect?

Yes, the cable supports USB 1.1 and 2.0 speeds only; it will not deliver USB 3.x or higher bandwidth even if the ports support it.

Will the 1.8 m length and moulded strain relief fit behind my desk setup?

The six-foot cable reaches around corners easily and the moulded strain relief bends without kinking for a secure fit.
