USB 3.0 Type A extension cable

This 1.5 m cable adds reach between a host USB 3.0 port and a standard Type A device. It supports up to 5 Gbps transfer rates and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 hosts. Gold-plated connectors and foil plus braid shielding protect signal integrity. The PVC jacket with internal metal braid resists abrasion and pulling.

Who this suits and who it does not

It suits anyone needing extra length for a flash drive, hard drive, card reader, keyboard, mouse, printer, scanner, camera or console such as PlayStation, Xbox or Oculus VR. It is not for connections that require USB Type C, Micro-B or Mini-B plugs, nor for runs longer than the supplied 1.5 m.

Deciding specification: 5 Gbps USB 3.0 data rate

The cable delivers USB 3.0 speeds of 5 Gbps when both host and device support that standard, dropping to 480 Mbps on USB 2.0 ports. This single figure determines whether the extension will meet the bandwidth needs of the attached peripheral.

Questions about this item

What clearance does the Type A male plug need behind the host port?

The male Type A plug is a standard rectangular connector; allow enough depth for the plug body plus the cable bend radius so it seats fully in the port without strain.

Which step do installers often skip when connecting this 1.5 m extender?

Insert the male end into a USB 3.0 port on the host, then plug the peripheral into the female end; the step people miss is confirming the host port is actually USB 3.0 to get the 5 Gbps rate instead of falling back to 480 Mbps.

How many insertions are the gold-plated connectors rated for before replacement?

The gold-plated connectors are rated for more than 10000 mating cycles; replace the cable if the connectors become loose or show visible corrosion.
