10ft USB 2.0 Extension Cable

This black USB 2.0 extension cable adds 10 feet of reach between a USB-A host and a USB-A peripheral. It suits desktop users who need to route a keyboard, mouse, printer or game controller to a more convenient port without moving the computer.

Plug-and-play installation

The molded male-to-female connectors fit standard USB-A ports on PCs and Macs with no drivers required. Strain-relief boots protect the solder joints from bending stress, while the foil-and-braid shield reduces interference that can cause intermittent disconnects on long runs.

USB 2.0 distance limit

The USB 2.0 specification caps cable length at 5 metres, so this 10-foot extension stays within the electrical budget for 480 Mbit/s signalling. Chaining additional extensions would exceed the timing allowance and risk data errors or device enumeration failures.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the cable is operating at the full 480 Mbps rate after connecting it?

The cable is built to USB 2.0 specifications with 24/28 AWG wire and aluminum-Mylar foil plus braid shielding to support up to 480 Mbps. Confirm the host and device both negotiate a high-speed connection in your OS device manager or system profiler.

What does the package include and is any extra hardware needed for installation?

The box contains the 10 ft black USB 2.0 extension cable with a USB-A male plug on one end and a USB-A female port on the other. No additional adapters, drivers or power supplies are required for standard PC or Mac use.

Should I choose a different length or gauge if I need to charge a tablet or run a game controller?

This 10 ft cable uses 24/28 AWG conductors and is listed as compatible with tablets such as iPad Air, iPad mini and Samsung Galaxy Tab, plus Xbox One and PS4 controllers. For longer runs a shorter cable would reduce voltage drop.
