Extend USB 2.0 Connections

This 3.00 ft extension cable adds reach to any standard USB 2.0 link. It carries a Type-A male plug on one end and a Type-A female port on the other. The 28 AWG data conductors and 24 AWG power conductors support the full USB 2.0 specification. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for a reliable signal.

Replaces Short or Fixed Cables

Use it when a device cable is too short or when a proprietary connector prevents a direct swap. The extension bridges the gap without reducing the USB 2.0 data rate. The jump is worth it whenever the existing lead cannot reach the host port or a hub. It does not add bandwidth or power beyond the 2.0 standard.

Plug-and-Play Installation

Simply insert the male end into the host and connect the device to the female end. No drivers or configuration are required. The main risk is exceeding the total cable length allowed by the USB 2.0 specification, which can cause signal drop-outs. Avoid sharp bends near the moulded connectors to prevent conductor fatigue.
