Optimised for Tight Spaces
The left-angle USB Type-B connector fits into confined or hard-to-reach ports, reducing strain on the connection and improving cable routing in cramped enclosures. This design suits printers, CNC machines, scanners and 3D printers where rear clearance is limited. The 12-inch length keeps excess cable to a minimum for tidy installations.
Shielded Construction for Noisy Environments
A shielded twisted-pair build guards against electromagnetic interference, maintaining stable data transmission in electrically noisy industrial or commercial settings. The cable meets USB 3.2 Gen 1 specifications, delivering up to 5 Gbps transfer rates when both host and peripheral support the standard. Black 28/24 AWG conductors provide durable power and signal paths.
Ready for Immediate Use
No additional drivers or software are required; the cable operates as a standard USB 3.0 link between a Type-A host port and a left-angle Type-B device port. The package contains only the cable itself, so deployment is as simple as plugging it in. This makes it a straightforward replacement or spare for existing USB 3.0 peripherals.

Questions about this item
What transfer rate does the USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface on this cable support?
The cable is compliant with USB 3.2 Gen 1 and supports data rates up to 5Gbps.
What clearance does the left-angle Type-B connector on the CG-1801B-12 require behind the device?
The left-angle Type-B plug routes the cable parallel to the device panel, reducing the rear clearance needed in tight enclosures.
How is the CG-1801B-12 installed and which orientation mistake is common?
Plug the Type-A end into the host and the left-angle Type-B end into the peripheral; a common error is forcing the angled plug upside down, which misaligns the keying.
