Three cables in one pack

This SMUGDESK pack contains three USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cables, each measuring ten feet. They are designed to connect USB 3.0 peripherals such as hard-drive enclosures, printers, cameras and cooling pads directly to a computer or hub. The cables support SuperSpeed data rates up to 5 Gbps when both ends are USB 3.0 compliant. Gold-plated connectors and foil-and-braid shielding aim to provide reliable signal integrity.

Check your ports before ordering

Verify that the device you want to link uses a USB Type A port, not Type B, Micro-B or Type C. The host side must also present a Type A receptacle. These cables are backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports, but will operate at the slower standard's speed. Ensure the combined cable run does not exceed the ten-foot length supplied, as no extension is included.

Behaviour under sustained load

The bare copper conductors and double shielding are built to maintain the 5 Gbps signalling rate during extended transfers. The manufacturer cites a reinforced strain-relief design tested to over twenty thousand bend cycles, reducing the risk of intermittent connection during repeated movement. No active electronics are present, so performance scales purely with the host and device capabilities.

Questions about this item

What comes in the 3-pack and is any extra adapter required?

The pack contains three separate USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cables, each 10 ft long. No additional adapters are needed; plug each end directly into the host and the peripheral.

Which version should I choose if my device only has USB 2.0 ports?

These cables are fully backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports, so the same 3-pack works whether your computer or peripheral is USB 3.0, 2.0 or 1.1.

What does the 5 Gbps figure mean when I copy files to an external hard drive?

The 5 Gbps rating is the maximum theoretical throughput of the USB 3.0 link; actual file-transfer speed will be lower and depends on the drive, the host controller and the file sizes being moved.
