The 6 ft USB 3.0 link

This cable provides a six-foot connection between a standard Type A host port and a Type B device port. It supports the USB 3.0 specification for faster data movement than earlier versions. The black jacket suits typical office or desk setups.

Build quality and daily use

Weighing 0.25 lbs, the assembly feels light yet solid enough for frequent plugging and unplugging. The Type B end fits printers, scanners, external drives and similar peripherals that retain the squarish connector. No drivers or configuration are required on modern operating systems.

When to choose this over shorter or older cables

It replaces a shorter legacy cable when the device sits farther from the host than a three-foot lead allows. The USB 3.0 rating makes the upgrade worthwhile whenever large scan jobs or bulk file transfers would otherwise bottleneck on a 2.0 link. Buyers needing a Micro-B or Type C device end cannot use this cable.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the USB 3.0 interface on this cable cap at?

The USB 3.0 interface on this cable caps at 5 Gbps in practice.

What physical clearance does the 6 ft length and Type B connector need to fit?

The 6 ft length needs a clear run of that distance and the Type B connector needs a standard USB Type B port opening.

How is this cable installed and what step do people get wrong?

Plug the Type A end into the host and the Type B end into the device; the step people get wrong is forcing the Type B plug in upside down.
