USB 2.0 extension for peripherals

This two-pack of USB 2.0 extension cables adds three feet of reach between a host device and USB-A peripherals such as keyboards, mice, printers or flash drives. The male-to-female connectors let you leave the host port in place while moving the peripheral to a more convenient spot. Both cables are new and ready for everyday connectivity tasks.

480 Mbps USB 2.0 data rate

Each cable supports the USB 2.0 maximum of 480 Mbps, which determines whether the link can handle your device’s bandwidth needs. The specification is fixed by the USB 2.0 standard, so higher-speed USB 3.0 or 3.1 peripherals will fall back to this rate when connected through these extenders.

Shielded construction for stable links

Foil-and-braid shielding plus bare copper conductors reduce electromagnetic interference, which helps maintain consistent throughput during long file transfers or continuous device operation. Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion from repeated mating cycles, preserving signal integrity over extended use.

Questions about this item

What does the 480 Mbps rating mean when I plug this into my computer?

It caps the link at USB 2.0 High Speed, so mice, keyboards, printers and flash drives run at their native rate while 3.0 or 3.1 devices fall back to 480 Mbps.

Which USB standard does the male-to-female connector follow, and what does that limit in practice?

The cable is built to the USB 2.0 specification, limiting throughput to 480 Mbps and preventing USB 3.x peripherals from reaching their higher speeds.

How much clearance do I need for the Type-A male and female ends to fit side by side?

Each end uses a standard rectangular USB-A shell, so allow roughly the width of two adjacent USB-A ports for the pair to sit without blocking neighbours.
