Two-cable pack for USB 3.0 Type B devices

This pack contains two 6 ft cables, each with a USB 3.0 Type A male plug on one end and a Type B male plug on the other. They connect a host computer to peripherals such as printers, scanners, hard-drive enclosures, cameras or docking stations that use the Type B interface. The cables are black and built with copper conductors, foil-and-braid shielding and nickel-plated connectors for durability.

Suits users adding or replacing Type B links

The pair is convenient for anyone who needs a spare or runs multiple SuperSpeed devices from one workstation. Backward compatibility lets them work with USB 2.0 or 1.1 ports, though speed falls to the older standard. Buyers whose gear uses USB Type C, Micro-B or Mini-B connectors cannot use these cables and should look for a different connector type.

5 Gbit/s SuperSpeed rating with Type B plug

The decisive specification is the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed rating of 5 Gbit/s (625 MB/s) combined with a Type B male connector. This determines whether the cable matches the port on the peripheral and delivers the full 10× throughput improvement over USB 2.0. If the device requires a different connector or a higher bandwidth standard, this pack will not fit the need.

Questions about this item

Will the nickel-plated connectors on this cable need any special cleaning or replacement over time?

The connectors are nickel-plated to resist corrosion, so no routine cleaning or scheduled replacement is required under normal use.

What limits the transfer speed when this cable runs at full 5 Gbit/s for long periods?

The practical ceiling is the 4.8 Gbps signalling rate of the USB 3.0 link; sustained throughput will not exceed that figure.

Does the PVC jacket and shielding make the cable run warm or draw extra power during all-day transfers?

The cable is passive with copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding, so it adds no active heat or measurable power draw beyond the devices it connects.
