Questions about this item

How can I confirm the cable is operating at USB 30 speeds after connecting it?

Check the transfer rate in your operating system or device manager; a USB 30 link should show SuperSpeed rather than High-Speed.

What is included with the Monoprice 138597 cable and do I need any extra adapters?

The package contains only the 3‑foot USB 30 Type‑A to Type‑A cable with 32AWG conductors and a TPE jacket; no additional adapters are required for standard Type‑A ports.

Which version of this cable should I choose for a modem or hard‑drive enclosure?

The single listed model 138597 is a USB 30 Type‑A to Type‑A cable rated for SuperSpeed data transfer, suitable for modems, printers and drive enclosures.
