USB 2.0 printer cable — 10 ft

This ten-foot USB 2.0 cable connects a standard Type-B device such as a printer or scanner to a Type-A host port. It uses 28 AWG data conductors and 24 AWG power conductors with gold-plated contacts and a ferrite core for interference protection. The moulded strain-relief boots reinforce each end for everyday desk use.

Sustained data transfer behaviour

The USB 2.0 interface limits throughput to the specification maximum, so long print jobs or scanner batches run at the same steady rate as short bursts. Shielded construction and the ferrite core keep the signal stable over the full ten-foot length without drop-outs. No active electronics are present, so performance does not degrade with cable warming.

Thermals, noise and power draw

Passive copper conductors draw only the bus power required by the attached peripheral, adding no measurable heat or audible noise. Gold plating resists corrosion, maintaining low contact resistance over time. The cable remains cool to the touch during continuous operation.

Questions about this item

Does the 10 ft cable generate any heat or electrical noise when a printer runs all day?

The cable is passive copper with 24 AWG power conductors and 28 AWG data conductors, so it produces no measurable heat or electrical noise during continuous use.

What ports must my computer and peripheral already have for this 5439 cable to work?

Your computer needs a USB Type-A port and the peripheral needs a USB Type-B port; both connectors on the cable are male.

Will this USB 2.0 A-to-B cable still function if I keep an older USB 1.1 scanner in the chain?

Yes, USB 2.0 is backward compatible with USB 1.1 devices, so the older scanner will operate at its native speed.
