USB 2.0 A Female to B Male Cable

This one-metre cable converts a USB Type B port on a printer, scanner or fax machine into a standard USB Type A female socket. It is intended for users who need to connect a regular USB cable to equipment that only provides a Type B connection. Plug-and-play operation requires no drivers or software installation.

Port conversion for peripheral connectivity

The male Type B plug inserts into the device while the female Type A receptacle accepts any standard USB cable you already own. This arrangement lets you position the peripheral where convenient without hunting for a specialised cable. The PVC jacket and nickel-plated connectors resist oxidation and maintain stable signal transmission.

Handles USB 2.0 speeds up to 480 Mbps

The link supports the full USB 2.0 bandwidth of 480 megabytes per second for printing, scanning or fax tasks. It is not compatible with Epson printers, scanners or any Epson-branded devices, nor with MIDI electronic musical instruments. Available lengths include 1.64 ft, 3.28 ft and 5.9 ft options.

Questions about this item

Will the 480 Mbps USB 2.0 link slow down my printer during long print jobs?

The cable supports USB 2.0 speeds up to 480 Mbps, which matches the standard interface on most printers and scanners, so sustained throughput will not be the bottleneck.

Does the PVC cable get warm or stiff when left plugged in all day?

The black PVC jacket stays flexible at room temperature and the nickel-plated Type B plug resists oxidation, so heat build-up is minimal during continuous use.

My printer only has a USB Type B port — do I need any extra cable or adapter to use this?

Plug the male Type B end into the printer; the female Type A port then accepts the standard USB A cable you already use with your computer.
