Purpose & Audience

The Nippon Labs USB3-3MM-BK is a 3 ft USB 3.0 Type A male to male cable for linking peripherals with an A-type port to a host computer running Windows or macOS. It suits users who need a direct SuperSpeed connection between two A-type sockets.

Interface Limits

USB 3.0 delivers up to 5Gbps, ten times the rate of USB 2.0, and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices. The A-to-A wiring is not intended for host-to-host links; it only works when one end connects to a peripheral that presents an A-type receptacle.

Build & Connectors

Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion while a foil-and-braid shield reduces signal interference. Moulded strain relief and grip treads on each plug improve durability and make insertion or removal easier during daily use.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the available lengths for this USB 3.0 A Male to A Male cable?

This listing is for the 3 ft model; other lengths are separate items, so select the one that matches the distance between your devices.

What does the 5Gbps rating mean when I plug this cable into my computer?

The 5Gbps figure is the maximum theoretical throughput of the USB 3.0 link; real-world file transfers will be lower and depend on the connected drives and controllers.

Which USB standard does the A-to-A connector use, and what speed does it cap at?

The cable uses the USB 3.0 standard with a 5Gbps ceiling, and it falls back to USB 2.0 or 1.1 speeds when connected to older ports.
