USB 3.0 Type A Male-to-Male Cable

This 10ft USB 3.0 cable connects two devices that each have a standard Type A port. It is intended for linking peripherals such as external hard drives, docking stations or printer hubs directly to a host computer or between compatible equipment. The copper conductors support a 5 gigabits_per_second data rate. Double shielding with aluminum mylar foil and braid helps reduce interference.

Compatibility and port check

Verify that both devices you plan to connect expose a USB 3.0 Type A female port; the male plugs on this cable will not fit Type B, Micro, Mini or Type C sockets. The cable is backwards compliant with high speed USB 2.0 devices at 480 Mbps and with USB 1.1. Ensure the host and peripheral both support the same USB revision for the expected throughput. No driver installation is required for standard USB operation.

Suitable uses and limits

This cable suits users who need a direct Type A to Type A link up to 10ft for data transfer or device charging within the USB power specification. It is not for buyers who want a Type C connection, an extension cable with a female end, or a longer run beyond the supplied length. Builders needing active signal boosting or optical isolation should look at alternative cable types.
