SMUGDESK USB 3.0 A to A Male Cable 3.3Ft 3-Pack

SKU CH-YW5F-PFF2Z

  • SuperSpeed USB 3.0 transfers data up to 5 Gbps
  • Backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports
  • Gold-plated connectors and foil & braid shielding minimise interference
  • 10,000+ bend cycles tested for long-term durability
  • Plug-and-play with no driver installation required

Three-cable pack for USB 3.0 devices

This three-pack supplies three USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cables, each 3.3 ft long, ready for connecting peripherals such as hard-drive enclosures, DVD players, laptop coolers, cameras and hubs to a host computer. The plug-and-play design requires no driver installation on Windows or Mac systems. Gold-plated connectors, bare copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding are used throughout.

Sustained 5 Gbps throughput with backward fallback

When both ends attach to USB 3.0-compliant ports the cable delivers up to 5 Gbps, ten times the rate of USB 2.0, and maintains that bandwidth during extended file transfers rather than only in short bursts. If either port is USB 2.0 or 1.1 the link automatically falls back to the slower standard without user intervention.

Gold contacts and 10 000-bend endurance

Connectors are gold-plated to resist corrosion and ensure low-resistance contact over repeated insertions. The cable jacket and internal construction survive more than 10 000 bending cycles, reducing the risk of conductor fracture during daily routing behind desks or inside enclosures. Foil and braid shielding suppresses electromagnetic interference for error-free signalling.

Questions about this item

Does the 3.3 ft cable generate noticeable heat when used all day with a 2.5 inch hard-drive enclosure?

The cable uses bare copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding designed for error-free transmission, so it does not produce noticeable heat during continuous operation.

Which ports must my devices already have for this USB 3.0 A-to-A male cable to work?

Both the host computer and the peripheral need a USB Type-A 3.0 port, though the cable is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports.

Will this cable work with my older USB 2.0 laptop and a USB 3.0 external drive?

Yes, the cable is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1, so it will connect the drive to the laptop at USB 2.0 speeds.
