SKU CH-GF2G-4K2S5

A 6 ft USB 3.0 Type-A to Type-B cable with 5 Gbps transfer speed, nickel-plated connectors and lifetime warranty for printers and scanners

  • SuperSpeed 5 Gbps transfer moves large files quickly
  • Backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.0 devices
  • Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion for lasting signal quality
  • Six-foot length reaches desktop peripherals easily
  • Lifetime warranty backs long-term reliability

USB 3.0 A-to-B cable for printers and scanners

This 6 ft cable connects a USB 3.0 Type A port on a host to a USB 3.0 Type B port on a printer, scanner or similar peripheral. It is built for users who need a reliable link for high-volume document workflows or bulk image transfers.

Thermals noise and power draw

The passive cable carries only signal and bus power, so it generates no audible noise and adds negligible heat to the setup. It draws whatever current the connected device negotiates over the USB 3.0 interface without requiring an external supply.

Build quality and daily use

Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion from repeated insertion cycles in office environments. The male-to-male layout suits standard printer and scanner ports, while the 6 ft length gives enough reach for desk-side placement without excess slack.

Questions about this item

How do I plug this USB 3.0 Type-A to Type-B cable into my printer without damaging the port?

Align the flat Type-A end with the host port and the square Type-B end with the device port; insert each connector straight in until it seats firmly — forcing it at an angle bends the nickel-plated pins.

Will the nickel-plated connectors need cleaning or replacement over time?

The anti-corrosive nickel plating resists oxidation, so no routine cleaning is required; the cable carries a lifetime warranty, meaning the manufacturer will replace it if a connector ever fails.

What limits transfer speed during a long, continuous 5 Gbps backup to an external drive?

Sustained throughput is capped by the USB 3.0 5 Gbps signalling rate and the 6-foot length; host-controller overhead and drive write speed usually become the bottleneck first.
