USB 3.0 Type-A Male-to-Male Cable

This six-foot cable connects two USB 3.0 Type-A ports for direct device-to-device or device-to-hub links. It supports SuperSpeed transfer at 5 gigabits per second and uses copper conductors with double shielding. The assembly is RoHS compliant and finished in black.

Suits SuperSpeed Peripheral Links.

It suits users linking a USB 3.0 peripheral such as a printer, scanner or external drive to a host port or hub. It does not suit builders who need a host-to-host bridge for direct PC-to-PC file transfer because standard Type-A to Type-A cables lack the required controller electronics. Buyers who want more length or a different connector gender should look at something else.

5 Gbps Bandwidth with USB 2.0 Fallback

The cable delivers 4.8 Gbps practical throughput over its 28 AWG twisted data pair and 26 AWG power conductors. It falls back to 480 Mbps high-speed USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 when connected to legacy ports. The double aluminium Mylar foil and braid shielding preserves signal integrity at the rated speed.
