USB 3.0 Type A to Mini B 10-Pin Cable

This 1.8 m cable connects USB 3.0 devices fitted with a Mini B 10-pin port to a standard Type A host. It suits external hard drives, powered hubs, docking stations, 3.5 inch enclosures and scanners that require the wider 10-pin connector. The link runs at up to 5 Gbps and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports. Gold-plated terminals and nine pure-copper conductors ensure reliable data transfer.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Buyers needing a 10-pin Mini B connection for USB 3.0 peripherals will find the correct fit here. It is not for devices that use the smaller 5-pin Mini B port found on many older USB 2.0 products. Users requiring a Micro B, Type C or standard Type B connector must select a different cable. The 1.8 m length suits typical desktop setups; longer runs need another solution.

Connector detail that decides compatibility

The cable terminates in a Mini B 10-pin male plug, which is physically distinct from the 5-pin Mini B used on USB 2.0 gear. This single specification determines whether the cable will mate with your device. Check the port on your enclosure, hub or scanner before ordering.

Questions about this item

Do I need a device with a mini B 10-pin USB 3.0 port to use this cable?

Yes, this cable has a mini B 10-pin male connector on one end, so the peripheral you are connecting — such as an external hard drive, docking station or scanner — must provide the matching mini B 10-pin USB 3.0 port.

Will the cable work if I plug the Type A end into an older USB 2.0 port on my computer?

The cable is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports, so it will function when connected to those older ports, though the transfer speed will drop to the port's maximum rate.

How can I confirm the cable is delivering the 5 Gbps link after I connect it?

Check the operating system's device manager or system information; the attached device should be listed as a USB 3.0 device operating at 5 Gbps, and file transfers should reflect the higher throughput.
