Cable length and connectors

This 15 ft USB 2.0 cable connects a Type A male plug to a Type B male plug. It is intended for linking printers, scanners or external drives to a host computer over a longer run than standard cables allow. The black jacket and gold-coloured contacts match typical office and home setups.

Data-rate specification

The cable meets or exceeds USB 2.0 specifications and supports transfer rates from 1.5 to 480 Mbps for both low-speed and high-speed devices. This single bandwidth figure determines whether the cable can handle your peripheral’s throughput requirements. Premium double shielding with tinned copper braid helps maintain signal integrity across the full length.

Thermals noise and power

As a passive copper cable it generates no audible noise and adds negligible heat to the system. Power drawn by connected devices is supplied by the host port within normal USB 2.0 current limits. No active cooling or external power adapter is required for typical multimedia or data-transfer workloads.

Questions about this item

What does the 480 Mbps rate mean when the cable is plugged into a real system?

The cable meets USB 2.0 Hi-Speed specifications, so it can carry up to 480 Mbps between a Type A host and a Type B device; actual throughput depends on the host controller and the connected peripheral.

Which USB standard does the connector pair follow, and what does that limit in practice?

It follows the USB 2.0 standard with Type A male and Type B male ends, capping the link at 480 Mbps and preventing USB 3.x or higher signalling.

What physical space and mounting does the 15 ft cable need?

The 15 ft length requires enough slack to route between ports without tension; each end uses a standard Type A or Type B male plug that fits the corresponding female port.
