  • SuperSpeed transfer up to 5 Gbps with USB 3.0
  • Gold-plated connectors ensure reliable, error-free data transmission

Three-cable USB 3.0 A-to-A pack

This three-pack supplies USB 3.0 Type-A male-to-male cables, each 1.64 ft long. They connect peripherals such as hard-drive enclosures, DVD players and laptop coolers to a host computer. Gold-plated contacts, bare copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding support up to 5 Gbps data rates. The cables are plug-and-play with no driver installation required.

Suits users linking USB-A peripherals to USB-A ports

Buyers needing to connect devices with USB-A ports to a computer or hub that also presents USB-A ports will find these cables fit the purpose. They are not for anyone requiring a USB-A to USB-C, USB-A to Micro-B or USB-A to Mini-B connection. Shoppers who need longer runs than 1.64 ft should look at alternative lengths.

Check both ends are USB-A before ordering

Verify that the host and the peripheral each expose a USB Type-A receptacle. Confirm the host port supports USB 3.0 to achieve the 5 Gbps rate; the cables fall back to USB 2.0 or 1.0 speeds on older ports. Ensure the 1.64 ft reach is sufficient for your desk or rack layout.

Questions about this item

What host ports must I have to use these USB 3.0 A-to-A cables?

You need a USB 3.0 Type A port on the host computer; the cables are also backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.0 Type A ports.

Will these cables work with my older USB 2.0 hard-drive enclosure?

Yes, the cables are backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.0 devices, so they will connect your older enclosure at its native speed.

How can I verify the cable is running at SuperSpeed after plugging it in?

Check the host’s device manager or system profiler — it should list the connection as USB 3.0 and show a 5 Gbps link rate when both ends are USB 3.0.
