What this cable does

This USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cable links two devices that both have a Type A port. It supports data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps and works with external hard drives, laptop cooling pads, monitors, cameras and similar peripherals. The 1.5 ft length keeps the connection tidy on a desk or in a bag.

Check your ports before ordering

Both ends are standard USB 3.0 Type A connectors, so each device must present a matching Type A socket. The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports, but it will not fit Type B, Micro, Mini or Type C sockets. No driver installation is required on supported operating systems.

Suits direct Type A links; not for other connectors

Buyers who need to join two Type A devices for fast file transfers or peripheral use will find this cable a simple plug-and-play solution. Users whose gear uses USB Type C, Micro-B, Mini-B or proprietary ports should look at a different cable that matches those interfaces.

Questions about this item

Does the 1.5FT USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cable come with any adapters or drivers, or must they be purchased separately?

The cable is a single 1.5FT USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male assembly. No adapters or drivers are included or required; it operates plug-and-play with compatible USB 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1 ports.

Which cable length or version should I choose for a 2.5-inch external hard-drive enclosure with a Type A USB 3.0 port?

This listing supplies the 1.5FT USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cable rated at up to 5 Gbps. It matches the enclosure's Type A USB 3.0 port directly; no other length or version is offered here.

What does the 5 Gbps headline speed mean when the cable is connected between a laptop and an external hard drive?

The 5 Gbps figure is the USB 3.0 interface maximum. Real-world transfer rates depend on the drive, laptop controller and file types, but the cable's gold-plated connectors, bare copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding are designed to sustain SuperSpeed performance.
