Ready-to-use USB 2.0 link

The StarTech USBFAB_10 is a ten-foot beige cable with a USB-A male plug on one end and a USB-B male plug on the other. It connects printers, scanners, external hard drives or USB hubs to a PC at USB 2.0 speeds up to 480 Mbps. The nickel-plated contacts and moulded strain relief are built for repeated plug cycles in office or home setups.

Check the ports on both devices

Verify that the host has a standard USB-A socket and the peripheral presents a USB-B socket before ordering. The cable carries USB 2.0 signals only, so it will not deliver USB 3.x or USB-C performance. Ensure the ten-foot length reaches your equipment without tension across walkways or desk edges.

Beige jacket with lifetime backing

The beige PVC jacket resists kinking and blends with legacy beige enclosures. Nickel-plated pins resist oxidation for reliable contact over years of daily use. Moulded boots protect the solder joints at each connector, and the assembly carries RoHS certification and a manufacturer lifetime warranty.

Questions about this item

Does the 10 ft cable arrive ready to use or do I need a separate adapter?

The cable ships with both a 4-pin USB Type A male and a 4-pin USB Type B male connector already attached, so no extra adapter is required.

Why choose the 10 ft beige USB 2.0 A-to-B version over a shorter length?

The 10 ft length gives enough reach for a printer or scanner placed away from the PC while still supporting the full USB 2.0 specification.

What does the 480 Mbps rating mean when I connect an external hard drive?

It indicates the maximum USB 2.0 bus speed; real-world throughput for the drive will be up to 60 MB/s depending on the device and system.
