USB 3.0 A Male to Female Extension
This cable extends the reach between a computer or tablet and USB peripherals using a Type A male connector on one end and a Type A female port on the other. It supports both USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 devices such as hard drives, hubs, keyboards, mice, printers, flash drives and game controllers. The 6.6 ft length helps access ports that are difficult to reach.
5 Gbps SuperSpeed Data Limit
The cable operates at the USB 3.0 specification with a maximum data transfer rate of 5 Gbps, which is 10x faster than USB 2.0. Signal quality is maintained by tinned copper conductors and gold-plated, corrosion-resistant connectors. Performance will fall back to USB 2.0 speeds when connected to older ports or devices.
Plug-and-Play Installation
No drivers or software are required; simply connect the male plug to the host and the peripheral into the female receptacle. The upgraded connector design fits snugly for easy insertion and removal. The main limitation is the fixed 6.6 ft length, so verify the distance between your devices before purchase.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 1.64 ft, 3.3 ft, 6.6 ft or 10 ft length?
Choose the shortest length that still reaches your device; 1.64 ft suits desk clutter, 3.3 ft crosses a typical workstation, 6.6 ft spans a room, and 10 ft covers longer runs.
What does the 5 Gbps rating deliver when I plug in a hard drive?
The cable supports USB 3.0 SuperSpeed up to 5 Gbps, so a mechanical drive will hit its native throughput while an SSD will be limited by the 5 Gbps ceiling.
How does the USB 3.0 Type-A interface affect what I can connect?
The male-to-female Type-A connector works with any USB 3.0 or 2.0 peripheral — hubs, drives, keyboards, mice, printers, cameras, game controllers or headsets — and is backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices.
