USB 3.0 A Male to A Female Extension

This five-foot cable extends a USB 3.0 connection using a male Type-A plug on one end and a female Type-A port on the other. It is built for users who need to position flash drives, card readers, external hard drives, keyboards, mice, printers, cameras or game consoles farther from the host port. The 22/28 AWG conductors support the full USB 3.0 signalling rate.

Double foil shield and twisted-pair construction

A double foil shield combined with an inner membrane bilayer and twisted-pair wiring reduces electromagnetic interference for stable data transfer. The male plug inserts into the host or hub while the female receptacle accepts any standard Type-A device, making it practical for routing behind desks or across a room. No additional drivers are required for operation.

4.8 Gbps maximum throughput with legacy fallback

When connected to a USB 3.0 host and device the cable delivers up to 4.8 Gbps, roughly ten times the 480 Mbps ceiling of USB 2.0. It remains backwards compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 equipment, though speed will fall to the older standard's limit. The five-foot length is within the USB 3.0 specification; longer runs would require an active repeater.
