Extension cable for USB 3.0 devices

This six-foot cable adds length to an existing USB 3.0 link using a male Type-A plug on one end and a female Type-A port on the other. It carries USB 3.0 SuperSpeed signals at up to 5Gbps and remains compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 equipment. The connectors use nickel-plated contacts inside a black PVC jacket.

Suits users who need extra reach for a peripheral

It works when a standard cable falls short of a rear-panel port or a desk-mounted hub. Builders who require a different connector style, such as Type-C or Micro-B, should look at a cable or adapter built for that interface. The male-to-female layout also means it cannot join two host ports directly.

Fits into a USB 3.0 chain without extra power

Plug the male end into the host or upstream hub and connect the existing device cable into the female end. The extension draws no external supply and adds no active circuitry, so it leaves the host port’s power budget unchanged. It simply passes through data and bus power within the 5Gbps SuperSpeed envelope.

Questions about this item

What existing USB cable do I need to connect this 6 ft extension?

You need a standard USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cable to plug into the female end of this extension.

Will this 5Gbps extension slow down my USB 2.0 peripherals?

No, the cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1, so older devices run at their native speeds.

How can I confirm the link is running at SuperSpeed after plugging it in?

Check your OS device manager or system profiler; it should list the connection speed as 5 Gbps or SuperSpeed.
