Connectivity and length

This 15 ft USB 3.0 cable links a Type A host port to a Type B device port. It supports data rates up to 5 Gbit/s (625 MB/s) and remains compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 equipment. Nickel-plated connectors and foil-plus-braid shielding protect signal integrity over the full run. The moulded strain relief and grip treads are built for repeated insertion cycles.

Who this suits and who it does not

The cable fits users who need a long, direct connection between a computer and a printer, scanner, hard-drive enclosure or docking station that uses a Type B socket. It does not serve setups requiring a Type C, Micro-B or Mini-B interface, nor situations where a shorter or panel-mount cable would be more practical. Buyers needing power delivery beyond the USB 3.0 specification should look elsewhere.

Build integration

The male-to-male design plugs straight into standard ports without adapters, freeing up hub ports and reducing cable clutter at the device end. Backward compatibility lets it work with older USB 2.0 or 1.1 hosts while still offering SuperSpeed performance on 3.0 hardware. Shielded copper conductors and corrosion-resistant contacts maintain reliable throughput in typical office or workbench environments.

Questions about this item

What host port is required to use the USB 3.0 A male connector?

A USB 3.0 Type A port on the PC or Mac provides the full 5 Gbit/s link; the cable also works with USB 2.0 or 1.1 ports at their native speeds.

Will the 15 ft cable still deliver SuperSpeed rates when the peripheral only has a USB 2.0 Type B port?

Yes, the USB 3.0 cable is backward compatible, so it falls back to USB 2.0 speeds automatically while retaining the same physical connection.

How can I confirm the link is running at 5 Gbit/s after plugging in the cable?

Check the OS device manager or system profiler — it should list the connection as SuperSpeed USB 3.0 with a theoretical 625 MB/s throughput.
