USB 3.0 Type-A extension cable

This 1.5 ft Monoprice cable extends a USB Type-A connection using a male plug on one end and a female port on the other. It uses 28 AWG data conductors and 24 AWG power conductors to carry SuperSpeed signals. The assembly is fully compliant with USB 3.0 specifications. A lifetime warranty backs the cable.

Suited for short-reach peripheral links

The cable adds 1.50 ft of reach for flash drives, card readers, hard drives, keyboards or VR headsets that plug into a Type-A port. It is not intended for runs that exceed this length. Builders who need longer extensions or a different connector gender should look at other options.

Male-to-female Type-A gender

The connector arrangement is Type-A male to Type-A female, so the cable only extends an existing Type-A link. It cannot connect a device that uses a Type-B, Micro-B or Type-C port without a separate adapter.

Questions about this item

Will the 1.5 ft cable reach my rear motherboard USB 3.0 Type-A port from a front-panel bracket?

The cable is 1.5 ft (0.4572 m) long, so measure the path from the bracket to the rear port; it adds only that length.

Does the USB 3.0 Type-A male plug need a specific orientation to seat fully in the port?

Insert the blue USB 3.0 Type-A male connector with the tongue facing up; forcing it upside-down is the common mistake that bends the 5 extra SuperSpeed pins.

Are the internal 28 AWG data and 24 AWG power conductors user-replaceable if the cable frays?

No, the conductors are moulded into the connectors; lifetime warranty covers defects, but physical damage means replacing the whole cable.
