Purpose and Audience

This LUOM USB 3.0 Type A to A Male cable connects two devices that both have USB 3.0 Type A ports. It is suited for users transferring files between a computer and peripherals such as external hard drives, DVD players, or hubs.

Upgrade Context

The cable supports SuperSpeed USB 3.0 at up to 5 Gbps, which is 10 times faster than USB 2.0 at 480 Mbps. The jump is worth it when moving large files between compatible hosts and you need the higher throughput.

Interface Limits

USB 3.0 Type A to A cables are not standard for direct PC-to-PC links; many hosts require a bridge device or specific software for that use. The 0.5 m length restricts placement, and the connector orientation may not fit recessed or tightly spaced ports.

Questions about this item

Does the 0.5 m length reach between my laptop and a desktop 2.5-inch hard-drive enclosure?

At 0.5 m (1.64 ft) the cable spans a short desktop gap; measure the distance between the two Type-A ports to confirm it reaches without tension.

Do I need to install any driver before the male-to-male Type-A link works?

No driver is required; the cable is plug-and-play on any host with a USB 3.0 Type-A port.

How many times can I bend the reinforced strain-relief section before it might fail?

The SR-reinforced design is rated for 20,000+ bend cycles, so normal daily flexing should not cause rupture.
