Extension cable for USB 2.0 peripherals

This 10 ft Cable Leader cable adds reach between a host USB Type A port and a USB Type A device. The male-to-female layout extends the connection for printers, scanners and other USB 1.0 or 2.0 peripherals. It is suited to setups where the stock cable falls short of the workstation or hub.

Practical limits of the USB 2.0 interface

Data moves at up to 480 Mbps, the ceiling of the USB 2.0 standard, and the copper conductors carry that rate across the full 10 ft length. An aluminum undermold shield reduces EMI and RFI noise that can degrade the signal at this distance. The specification supports up to 127 devices in a daisy-chain topology.

Replaces shorter or unshielded USB 2.0 leads

Swapping a short factory cable for this 10 ft shielded version removes the need to place the peripheral right beside the computer. The jump is worthwhile when cable routing, desk layout or equipment placement demands extra length without stepping down to USB 1.1 speeds. It does not add USB 3.0 bandwidth or power-delivery capability.

Questions about this item

Should I pick this 10 ft length or a shorter USB 2.0 A-to-A extension?

The 10 ft cable reaches peripherals across a room while keeping the 480 Mbps Hi-Speed rating; choose a shorter run only if you need less slack.

Will the 480 Mbps headline speed hold up when this extension is plugged into my printer?

Yes — the copper conductors and aluminum undermold shield preserve USB 2.0 Hi-Speed performance at the full 10 ft, so printers and scanners transfer at the rated 480 Mbps.

Does the USB 2.0 Type-A interface limit how many devices I can daisy-chain through this extension?

The USB 2.0 spec allows up to 127 devices on a daisy-chain, and this male-to-female extension passes that limit through without reduction.
