30 ft USB Printer Cable Type A to B

This 30 ft grey braided USB cable connects Type-A hosts to Type-B peripherals such as printers, scanners, fax machines and MIDI keyboards. It supports data transfer up to 480 Mbps and is backward compatible with USB 1.0 and 1.1 speeds. The nylon-braided jacket and aluminium alloy connector housings provide abrasion resistance, while a reinforced strain-relief design protects against repeated bending.

Home offices, studios and long-run desk setups

The 30 ft length suits workspaces where the computer sits far from the printer or audio interface, eliminating the need for extension cords or wireless links. Buyers who need a shorter cable for a compact desk, or who require USB 3.0 or higher bandwidth for large-volume scans, should look at a different cable.

480 Mbps maximum data rate

The cable operates at USB 2.0 High Speed with a top signalling rate of 480 Mbps. This single specification determines whether the link can handle your printer’s native throughput or a MIDI device’s timing requirements without bottlenecking.

Questions about this item

How much clearance does the 30 ft braided cable need behind my desk?

The grey nylon-braided jacket adds a few millimetres over a plain PVC cord, so allow roughly 8 mm diameter plus the strain-relief collars at each end when routing through grommets or cable trays.

Which way round do the Type-A and Type-B plugs go, and what is the common mistake?

The rectangular Type-A plug faces the computer or hub; the square Type-B plug faces the printer, scanner or MIDI device. The frequent error is forcing the Type-B end into the upstream port, which damages the connector.

When should I replace this 480 Mbps cable?

Replace it if the braided sheath frays near the strain relief, the metal shells loosen, or intermittent disconnects appear during printing or MIDI sessions — symptoms of internal wire fatigue after repeated bending.
