Three-cable pack for USB 3.0 devices
This three-pack supplies USB 3.0 Type A male-to-female extension cables measuring 0.5 m each. They let you position peripherals such as keyboards, card readers or printers farther from a laptop or desktop without moving the host machine. The cables are backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices.
Check port type and required reach
Verify that the host and the peripheral both use USB Type A connectors before ordering. Confirm that a 0.5 m extension provides the extra length you need; longer runs are not covered by this pack. Ensure the devices you plan to connect do not require a different USB connector shape such as Type B, Micro or Type C.
Thermals noise and power draw
Passive copper construction means the cables generate no audible noise and add negligible heat to the setup. Power delivery follows the USB 3.0 specification so attached devices draw only what the host port supplies. No external power adapter is involved.

Questions about this item
What does the 3-pack include and is anything else required?
The pack contains three USB 3.0 Type A male-to-female extension cables, each 0.5 m (1.64 ft) long. No additional parts are needed; plug them directly between your device and the host port.
When would I choose the 0.5 m length over a longer cable?
Choose 0.5 m when the peripheral sits close to the port — for example a keyboard, card reader or printer on the same desk — to avoid excess slack while still gaining a little extra reach.
What does the 5 Gbps headline speed mean for my actual transfers?
The cable supports USB 3.0 SuperSpeed up to 5 Gbps (4.8 Gbps typical throughput), which is ten times the 480 Mbps ceiling of USB 2.0, so large file copies to external drives or high-resolution scanners finish noticeably faster.
