Hosa Technology USB 2.0 A Male to A Female Extension Cable 10 ft

Extended reach for USB devices

This Hosa Technology cable adds 10 ft of length between a host port and a USB peripheral. It carries a Type A Male plug on one end and a Type A Female socket on the other, so any standard USB 2.0 device can sit farther from the computer without replacing its own cord. The 2.0 specification supports printers, scanners, external drives and adapters at their normal signalling rate. No driver installation is required on any modern operating system.

Fits between host and peripheral

Plug the male end into the computer or hub and the female end accepts the device's existing cable, freeing the device from the short reach of its factory lead. The flexible jacket routes around desks, rack rails or conduit without kinking, and the connectors seat firmly to resist accidental disconnection during daily use. Because it draws no external power, the extension adds no outlet or power-supply requirement to the build. It simply bridges the gap where the stock cable falls short.

Steady signal over the full run

The cable meets USB 2.0 electrical limits across the entire 10 ft span, so sustained transfers to external drives or continuous scanner streams keep their rated throughput without the drop-outs that cheaper, longer leads can introduce. Shielded conductors and moulded strain relief protect the differential pair from EMI and repeated flexing, preserving eye-diagram integrity during hours-long backup jobs or multi-page scan batches. The result is the same error-free link you would expect from a short factory cable, only longer.
