Extends USB ports by 1.66ft

This USB 2.0 extension cable adds 1.66ft of reach between a host computer and standard USB-A peripherals such as keyboards, mice, printers, scanners, flash drives, card readers, gamepads and cameras. It protects the original port from wear caused by frequent plugging and unplugging. The male-to-female USB-A connectors suit desktop and laptop setups alike.

Gold-plated connectors with foil and braid shielding

Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion while bare copper conductors carry the signal. Foil and braid shielding work together to reduce electromagnetic interference along the cable run. The construction requires no additional drivers or power; simply connect the male end to the host and attach the peripheral to the female end.

Sustained 30MB/s transfers under load

The cable supports the USB 2.0 specification of 480Mbps and delivers a tested 30MB/s sustained transfer rate when moving data from a 1TB hard drive. Shielding and conductor quality maintain that throughput during extended copy sessions without the drops seen on unshielded leads. It is not suited for applications that demand USB 3.0 or higher bandwidth.

Questions about this item

Does the 1.66ft length limit where I can place my USB device?

The cable adds 1.66ft of reach so you can position a gamepad, flash drive, mouse, keyboard, printer, scanner or card reader further from the computer without moving the host.

Will the cable get warm or draw extra power when I leave a hard drive connected all day?

It is a passive USB 2.0 copper cable with foil and braid shielding; it carries only the 480Mbps signal and the device's own power draw, so it stays cool during continuous use.

My device has a USB A plug — will this extender fit without an adapter?

Yes, the extender has a standard USB A male connector on one end and a USB A female port on the other, matching any USB A device directly.
