USB-C to USB 3.0 Type-B cable for 10 Gbps links

This three-foot cable connects a USB-C host to a USB 3.0 Type-B peripheral such as an external drive or hub. It supports USB 3.1 Gen 2 data rates up to 10 Gbps and delivers up to 3 A for fast charging. The reversible USB-C plug removes orientation guesswork. Shielding provides error-free signal quality and EMI/RFI protection.

Passive cable runs cool

The passive copper construction draws power only from the connected ports, so it adds no fan noise or heat to a workstation. Voltage drop over the short 3 ft length stays within USB 3.1 Gen 2 limits for reliable 10 Gbps throughput. No driver installation is required on modern operating systems.

Fits tight desk setups and frees USB-A ports

The compact 3 ft reach suits side-by-side devices without excess slack. It lets a USB-C laptop drive a USB 3.0 Type-B dock or enclosure while leaving the host’s USB-A sockets free for other accessories. Buyers needing a USB-C to USB-A or USB-C to USB-C link should choose a different cable.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the USB-C end to a laptop with a USB-C port and the USB 3.0 Type-B end to an external hard drive?

Plug the reversible USB-C male connector into the laptop's USB-C port and the USB 3.0 Type-B male connector into the drive's Type-B port; the reversible design prevents upside-down insertion.

Will the cable's EMI/RFI shielding degrade over time and require replacement?

The integrated EMI/RFI protection is built into the cable construction and does not wear out; replacement is only needed if the connectors or jacket suffer physical damage.

At what point does the 3 ft length limit 10 Gbps signal integrity under sustained heavy transfers?

The 3 ft length meets USB 3.1 Gen 2 specifications for 10 Gbps operation; signal integrity is maintained for the full cable length during sustained use.
