0.5 m USB 2.0 flat ribbon extension
This half-metre cable extends a standard USB-A port with a male-to-female connection. The ultra-thin flat ribbon construction stays flexible and bend-resistant for neat hidden wiring in narrow spaces. It suits embedded devices, desktop setups and daily short-range connection needs.
USB 2.0 limits data to 480 Mbps
The cable operates at the USB 2.0 specification, so maximum data throughput is 480 Mbps. It cannot reach the higher speeds of later USB revisions. Power delivery follows the same standard limits, making it suitable for charging small electronics and running typical peripherals.
0.5 m length fits tight routing only
The fixed half-metre reach works for short-distance links such as panel extensions or tidy desk routing. It will not span longer gaps between a host and a distant device. Buyers who need more length must choose a different cable.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 0.5 m flat ribbon or a longer round cable for my setup?
The 0.5 m flat ribbon is designed for short, tidy runs in tight spaces; a longer round cable would add bulk and reduce the neat routing advantage.
What does the 480 Mbps rating mean when I plug this into my laptop?
It is the maximum USB 2.0 data throughput; real‑world speeds depend on the host controller, the peripheral and cable quality, but will not exceed 480 Mbps.
The cable uses USB 2.0 connectors — what does that cap in practice?
USB 2.0 limits both data to 480 Mbps and power to the standard 2.0 specification, so fast‑charge protocols and higher‑speed modes are not supported.
