USB 2.0 A-to-B connection
This cable links a standard USB-A host port to a USB-B device port. It is built for printers, scanners and other peripherals that use the square Type-B connector. The 1.0 m length suits typical desktop arrangements. Plug-and-play operation requires no driver installation.
Home and small-office peripherals
It suits users connecting a single printer, scanner or legacy device to a PC or Mac. Builders needing longer runs, USB 3.x speeds or USB-C endpoints should look at other cables. The design does not support charging-only or OTG roles.
480 Mbps maximum transfer rate
The USB 2.0 specification caps data throughput at 480 Mbps, and actual speed depends on the connected peripheral. Foil-and-braid shielding with twisted-pair construction reduces EMI/RFI interference and crosstalk. Backward compatibility covers USB 1.1 and 1.0 devices.

Questions about this item
Will the foil and braid shielding degrade over time and require cable replacement?
The foil and braid shielding is built into the cable assembly and does not wear out under normal use; replacement is only needed if the cable is physically damaged.
What limits the 480 Mbps transfer rate during sustained large-file transfers?
The USB 2.0 specification caps the cable at 480 Mbps, so the interface itself is the first bottleneck under continuous load.
Does the 1.0 m cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when left connected all day?
Passive copper cables of this length do not produce measurable heat or increase power draw during continuous operation.
