Kaybles USB 3.0 A to B cable

The Kaybles USB3-AB-6FT is a USB 3.0 cable with a Type-A male connector on one end and a Type-B male connector on the other. It is built for connecting peripherals such as hard drive enclosures, printers, scanners and cameras to a computer. The six-foot length suits typical desktop arrangements.

Replaces older USB 2.0 links

This cable upgrades a USB 2.0 connection when both the host port and the peripheral port support USB 3.0. The jump is worth it for large file transfers to external drives or high-resolution scanner output where the 4.8 Gbps peak rate cuts wait time. It will not increase speed if either end remains USB 2.0.

Plug-and-play with shielded build

Installation is plug-and-play with no drivers required on modern operating systems. The foil-and-braid shielding and twisted-pair construction protect signal integrity, while the over-moulded, blue colour-coded connectors resist strain. Ensure the Type-B port on the device matches the USB 3.0 B shape, which differs from the older USB 2.0 B connector.

Questions about this item

What type of USB port does the B connector on this cable fit?

The B connector fits a USB 3.0 Type-B port, which is the wider, blue-coloured port found on many external hard drives, docking stations and 3.5 inch drive enclosures.

How do I connect the cable correctly, and what is the common mistake?

Plug the flat A connector into the computer and the square B connector into the peripheral; the mistake is forcing the B plug upside down because the USB 3.0 B shape only inserts one way.

When should I replace this cable?

Replace it if the blue over-moulded connectors crack, the foil-and-braid shielding becomes exposed, or data transfers drop below the 4.8 Gbps rate with known-good USB 3.0 devices.
