USB 3.0 A Male-to-Female Extension Cable (6 ft)
This new Monoprice cable extends a USB 3.0 Type-A connection by 6.00 ft (1.8288 m). It uses a male-to-female layout with gold-plated connectors and a braided nylon jacket. The cable is fully compliant with the USB 3.0 specification and supports SuperSpeed data rates up to 5 Gbps. Model 130715 is designed for external storage and other SuperSpeed devices.
Suits users needing extra reach for USB 3.0 Type
Buyers who want a longer link for flash drives, hard drives or scanners with a standard Type-A plug will find this extension useful. The braided jacket resists tangling and the gold contacts resist corrosion. It is not for connecting two host ports directly, nor for devices that require USB-C, Micro-B or proprietary connectors.
USB 3.0 Type-A male-to-female gender
The decisive spec is the connector pairing: a USB 3.0 Standard-A male plug on one end and a Standard-A female receptacle on the other. This gender arrangement only extends an existing Type-A cable or device; it cannot adapt to other USB form factors or change the host-to-peripheral direction.
