USB 3.0 A Male to A Male Cable

The Nippon Labs USB3-6MM is a six-foot USB 3.0 cable with Type A male connectors on both ends. It links peripheral devices that have an A-type USB 3.0 port to a host computer. The cable works with both PC and Apple systems and requires no driver installation.

Practical limits of the USB 3.0 interface

The USB 3.0 standard delivers up to 5Gbps data transfer, which is ten times the rate of USB 2.0. A foil-and-braid shield reduces signal interference for reliable performance. The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices, though transfer speeds will fall to the older standard's maximum.

Male-to-male Type A connector constraint

This cable only fits ports that accept a USB Type A male plug on both the host and the peripheral. It cannot connect devices that use Type B, Micro, Mini or Type C ports. Buyers who need a different connector combination must choose another cable.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 6 ft length or a different cable for my setup?

This cable is 6 ft long; select it when you need that exact reach between two USB Type-A ports, otherwise pick a shorter or longer cable to match your distance.

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

The 5 Gbps figure is the maximum theoretical throughput of the USB 3.0 link; real-world transfer speeds will be lower due to protocol overhead and device limits.

Which USB standard does the Type-A to Type-A connection use and what does it cap?

It uses USB 3.0, capping the connection at 5 Gbps while remaining backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices.
