What this cable connects

This LUOM US-130 cable links a USB 3.0 Type A port to a Micro-B device such as a portable hard drive or a Samsung Galaxy S5, Note 3 or Note Pro 12.2. It carries data at up to 5 Gbps and also charges compatible smartphones and tablets. The 1.5 ft length suits desktop setups where the drive sits close to the computer.

Installing and common issues

The male-to-male connectors push straight into standard ports; no drivers are required on Windows Vista or later. Gold-plated contacts and moulded strain relief reduce wear from repeated insertion. The short 1.5 ft reach can strain if the device is placed farther away, so check the distance before routing the cable.

Behaviour during long transfers

Double shielding with foil and braid plus solid copper conductors keeps the 5 Gbps signal stable during extended file moves. Backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports means the cable falls back to lower speeds without dropping the connection when used with older hosts.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the 5 Gbps transfer rate is active after connecting this cable?

Check the device manager or system profiler on your computer to confirm the connected drive or phone enumerates as a USB 3.0 device; a sustained copy of a large file should approach the 5 Gbps ceiling.

What comes in the box and is anything else required?

The package contains only the 1.5 ft USB 3.0 Type-A to Micro-B cable; no adapter, driver disc or power supply is included or needed.

Should I choose the 1.5 ft length or a longer option for a desktop external drive?

At 1.5 ft this cable suits tight desk setups or laptop bags; if the drive sits farther from the port, select a longer cable instead.
