Short Reach USB 3.0 Extender
This one-foot USB 3.0 male-to-female cable adds a short reach to ports on a TV, computer or Mac. It suits VR headsets, consoles, flash drives, hard drives, card readers, mice, keyboards, printers, scanners and cameras. The gold-plated connectors, bare copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding support error-free data transmission. Plug-and-play operation requires no driver on universal systems.
USB 3.0 Practical Limits
The link runs at up to 5 Gbps, ten times the USB 2.0 rate, while staying backwards compatible with existing USB 2.0 devices. The short length keeps signal loss low for high-speed peripherals. The grey nylon braid and aluminium alloy shell add flexibility and durability for repeated insertion behind equipment.
Upgrade From Shorter Cables
Replaces a too-short fixed cable or a missing port extender when the device sits close to the host. The jump is worth it when you need a tidy one-foot bridge without excess slack. Buyers who need more reach or multiple added ports will need a longer cable or a powered hub instead.

Questions about this item
Which length should I choose for a desktop setup?
The cable is offered in a 1 ft length only, which is designed for short runs behind a TV or computer without excess slack.
What does the 5 Gbps figure mean once the cable is in use?
It is the maximum theoretical throughput of the USB 3.0 link; real-world transfer speeds will be lower and depend on the host controller and connected device.
How does the USB 3.0 interface cap performance in practice?
The connection is limited to 5 Gbps signalling and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices, so any faster peripheral will operate at this ceiling.
