Connectivity for USB 3.0 Micro-B peripherals

This USB 3.0 Type-A to Micro-B cable connects external hard drives, cameras, printers and other SuperSpeed devices to a PC or Mac. The 6.6 ft length gives flexible placement across a desk or bench. Molded connectors and foil-and-braid shielding deliver a durable, plug-and-play link for everyday data workflows.

4.8 Gbps SuperSpeed bandwidth

The cable meets USB 3.0 SuperSpeed specifications and carries data at up to 4.8 Gbps when both host and device support USB 3.0. It remains backwards compliant with USB 2.0 at 480 Mbps and USB 1.1 at 1.1 Mbps, so older peripherals still function at their rated speeds.

Shielded construction

Foil and braid shielding reduces EMI and RFI interference while twisted-pair construction limits crosstalk for error-free transfers. The protective overmoulded connectors are colour-coded blue to identify USB 3.0 compatibility at a glance, and the cable supplies up to 900 mA of power for bus-powered devices.

Questions about this item

What real-world transfer speed will I see from the 4.8 Gbps rating when the cable is connected to a USB 3.0 host and device?

The cable supports up to 4.8 Gbps bandwidth when both the host and the peripheral are USB 3.0 compliant; actual throughput depends on the drive or device you attach.

Which USB standard does the Type A connector follow, and what maximum data rate does that limit the link to?

The Type A plug is USB 3.0 SuperSpeed, capping the connection at 4.8 Gbps; it will fall back to 480 Mbps on USB 2.0 ports and 1.1 on older ones.

What physical clearance and mounting style does the 6.6 ft cable need to reach between a desktop port and a Micro-B device?

At 6.6 ft (2 m) the molded blue Type A and Micro-B plugs need enough slack for the overmolded strain relief; no brackets or screws are required.
