SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK USB 3.0 Male to Male Cable 10 ft 3-Pack

SKU CH-5CGE-ZETDS

Three 10 ft USB 3.0 Male-to-Male cables transfer data at up to 5 Gbps and work with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports

  • Up to 5 Gbps SuperSpeed transfer, 10× faster than USB 2.0
  • Backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports
  • Plug-and-play with no driver required for hard drives, printers, cameras
  • Moulded strain relief and grip treads for durable, easy connections
  • Nickel-plated connectors, bare copper conductors, foil and braid shielding for error-free data

Three-pack 10 ft cables

This SMUGDESK pack contains three USB 3.0 Male-to-Male Type A cables, each 10 ft long. They connect USB 3.0 peripherals such as hard-drive enclosures, printers, cameras or hubs to a computer for data transfer. The plug-and-play design requires no driver installation. The cables are backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports.

5 Gbps SuperSpeed transfer

Each cable supports USB 3.0 data rates up to 5 Gbps, ten times the throughput of USB 2.0. Nickel-plated connectors, bare copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding combine with moulded strain relief and grip treads to deliver durable, error-free transmission. The double-sided Type A layout extends an existing USB 3.0 connection without adapters.

Suits multi-device setups; not for USB-C

The three-cable bundle suits homes or offices linking several SuperSpeed peripherals to legacy Type A ports. Buyers needing USB-C, Micro-B or other connector types should look elsewhere, as these cables only provide Type A to Type A connectivity.

Questions about this item

What does the 5 Gbps headline speed mean when I plug this cable into my computer?

The cable supports USB 3.0 SuperSpeed up to 5 Gbps, so large files move roughly ten times faster than over USB 2.0, provided both the host port and the connected device are USB 3.0.

Which USB standard does the Type-A connector follow, and what does that limit in practice?

The connectors are USB 3.0 Type-A, capping the link at 5 Gbps; they will fall back to USB 2.0 or 1.1 speeds if either end only supports those older versions.

What physical space do I need to route and secure a 10 ft cable?

Each cable is 10 ft long with moulded strain-relief connectors, so allow enough slack for the bend radius behind the device and clearance for the grip treads when plugging or unplugging.
