USB 2.0 extension cable for PC and Mac

This USB 2.0 extension cable connects a Type A male plug to a Type A female socket, adding reach for peripherals on both PC and Mac systems. Gold-plated contacts are fitted to each connector to maintain signal quality. The cable supports the USB 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0 specifications and operates on a plug-and-play basis with no driver installation required.

Gold-plated connectors with 480 Mbps transfer rate

Gold plating on both the male and female Type A connectors reduces contact resistance and helps preserve data integrity over repeated insertions. Transfer rates reach up to 480 Mbps depending on the USB version of the attached host and device. The black cable jacket provides a neutral appearance that suits typical desktop or laptop environments.

Passive design suited to low-power peripherals

As a passive copper extension, the cable draws no external power and adds minimal voltage drop for standard low-current devices such as keyboards, mice or printers. It is not intended for high-current charging or bus-powered hard drives that exceed the current budget of a single USB 2.0 port. Length is fixed at the manufactured specification and cannot be daisy-chained without signal degradation.
