What this cable connects

The Syba CL-CAB20072 is a USB 3.0 Type A male to Type B male cable in blue. It links a host port to peripherals such as printers, scanners or external drive enclosures that use the square Type B socket. The two male ends plug straight in without adapters.

Behaviour under sustained use

USB 3.0 delivers up to 10x USB 2.0's transmission rate and supports full-duplex data transmission. The interface remains more power efficient than the older standard while keeping the plug and play feature. It is downward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports, so the link stays active even on legacy hosts.

The deciding specification

The connector pairing is Type A male to Type B male. Buyers whose device presents a Type C, Micro-B or Mini-B port cannot use this cable. Buyers who need a Type A to Type A link or a longer run than this cable provides should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Does the USB 3.0 cable run cooler or draw less power than a USB 2.0 cable during all-day transfers?

The USB 3.0 specification is more power efficient than USB 2.0, so the cable draws less current for the same data workload.

What ports must my computer and peripheral already have for this Type A male to Type B male cable to work?

Your computer needs a USB Type A port and the peripheral needs a USB Type B port; both are standard on most desktops, printers and external drives.

Will this blue cable still work at full speed if I connect it to a USB 2.0 or 1.1 port on older hardware?

The cable is downward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1, so it works with older ports but falls back to their slower speeds.
