High-Quality USB 3.0 Certified Cable

This StarTech.com USB3CAB1M cable connects USB 3.0 devices using a Type A male connector on one end and a Type B male connector on the other. It measures 3.28 ft in length and features a black molded design for durability. The cable is certified for USB 3.0 data transfer speeds.

Ideal for Connecting Standard USB 3.0 Peripherals

This cable suits users linking devices such as printers, scanners or external hard drives that require a Type B port to a host computer with a Type A port. It is not suitable for devices using Micro-B, Mini-B or USB-C connectors, nor for connections requiring longer reach than 3.28 ft.

Certified USB 3.0 Performance Headroom

The USB 3.0 certification ensures the cable comfortably handles SuperSpeed data transfers up to 5 Gbps for compatible devices. Performance will be limited to USB 2.0 speeds if connected to older ports. The fixed 3.28 ft length provides ample headroom for desktop setups but restricts placement for distant equipment.

Questions about this item

What type of USB port must my device have to use the Type A male connector on this cable?

Your device needs a standard USB Type A port — the rectangular socket found on most computers, hubs and chargers — to accept the Type A male plug on the first end.

Will this cable work with my older USB 2.0 external hard drive that uses a Type B port?

Yes, the Type B male connector fits the same square port on USB 2.0 devices, and the cable will carry data at USB 2.0 speeds when connected to that drive.

How can I confirm the cable is operating at USB 3.0 speeds after I plug it in?

Check the transfer rate in your OS — on Windows open Device Manager, on macOS use System Information — and verify the link shows 5 Gb/s or SuperSpeed for the connected device.
