Cable extension for USB peripherals
This six-foot cable adds reach between a computer and USB Type-A devices such as printers, cameras, mice and keyboards. The male-to-female layout plugs straight into an existing port without adapters. Copper conductors carry both data and power signals. A braided jacket protects the cable from everyday wear.
Suited to desk layouts needing extra length
The 6 ft span works well when a peripheral sits farther from the host than a standard cable allows. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain clear signal transfer. Double shielding with aluminium Mylar foil and braid reduces interference in busy environments. Users who require USB 3.0 speeds or a different connector type should choose another product.
Handles low-speed and full-speed USB 2.0 traffic
One twisted pair of 28 AWG wires carries data while two 24 AWG conductors deliver power. The construction supports typical peripheral workloads without voltage drop over the full length. Bandwidth tops out at the USB 2.0 rate, so high-throughput devices will not reach their maximum performance.

Questions about this item
Does this 6 ft extension cable need any driver or external power to work with a standard USB 2.0 port?
No driver or external power is required; the cable draws power from the host USB 2.0 port and extends the connection up to 6 ft.
Will the 24 AWG power conductors and double shielding keep a USB 2.0 printer or mouse running reliably at the full 6 ft length?
Yes, the 24 AWG power conductors and double shielding (aluminium Mylar foil plus braid) are designed to maintain reliable USB 2.0 power and data delivery across the full 6 ft.
How can I confirm the cable is functioning correctly after plugging it in?
Connect a USB 2.0 device through the extension; if the device enumerates and transfers data without errors, the cable is working as intended.
