SMUGDESK USB 3.0 Male to Male Cable 6.6ft

USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cable moves data at up to 5 Gbps between hard drives, laptops, hubs and more

  • Up to 5 Gbps data transfer with USB 3.0 speed
  • Backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports
  • Connects USB Type A peripherals to computers for file transfer
  • Gold-plated connectors and foil plus braid shielding minimise interference
  • Tested to withstand over 10,000 bending cycles for durability

6.6 ft USB 3.0 Male to Male Cable

This SMUGDESK cable links two USB Type-A ports for direct data transfer at up to 5 Gbps. It comes in a three-pack of 6.6 ft cords with gold-plated connectors, bare copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding tested to more than 10 000 bends. No driver installation is required on supported systems.

Peripherals with USB-A 3.0 ports

The cable suits users connecting external hard drives, hubs, cameras, DVD players, cooling pads or similar USB-A 3.0 devices to a host computer. It is not for buyers whose devices only have USB-C, Micro-USB or proprietary connectors, nor for setups that need power delivery or alternate-mode signalling.

5 Gbps SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface

The decisive specification is the 5 Gbps SuperSpeed USB 3.0 rating, which is ten times the 480 Mbps ceiling of USB 2.0. Backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports is maintained, but the link will fall back to the slower standard when either end lacks USB 3.0 support.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single cable or the 3 pack for my setup?

The 3 pack provides three 6.6 ft cables so you can leave one connected to a printer, one to an external drive and keep a spare for travel.

What does the 5 Gbps rating mean when I plug this into my laptop?

You can expect up to 5,120 Mbps transfer speed with a USB 3.0 port, dropping to 480 Mbps on USB 2.0 ports.

Is this a USB 3.0 Type A to Type A cable and what does that limit?

Yes, it is a USB 3.0 Male to Male Type A cable, so it only links devices that both have a standard Type A port.
