SMUGDESK USB 3.0 A to A Cable Pack

This three-pack of USB 3.0 Male to Male Type A cables connects USB 3.0 peripherals to a computer for data transfer. Each cable measures 1.6 ft and suits external hard drive enclosures, hubs, DVD players and laptop coolers. The cords are rated for over 20000 bending cycles and use pure copper conductors with multiple shielding.

Ideal for USB-A peripheral links.

The cables work with devices that present a USB 3.0 Type A port such as 2.5-inch drive enclosures, monitors, cameras and set-top boxes. They are backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports. Buyers needing to link two computers directly or requiring USB-C connectors must choose a different cable family.

5 Gbps USB 3.0 transfer rate

The specification that decides fit is the 5 Gbps maximum data throughput of the USB 3.0 interface. This speed moves large files in seconds and is ten times faster than USB 2.0. Verify that both the peripheral and the host port are USB 3.0 Type A to achieve the full rate.
