What this cable does
The USBGear UBAMAFT-2M extends a USB 2.0 connection by seven feet using a male-to-male Type-A layout. It suits desktop users who need to reach a rear port from a front-panel device or reposition a hub without moving the host.
Capacity and headroom
The cable carries data at up to 480 Mbps and uses 20-gauge power conductors to deliver the full 500 mA bus-current allowance at the far end. That headroom keeps bus-powered hard drives, optical drives and media players running reliably, while longer runs or higher-current devices would exceed the spec.
Build quality and daily use
Molded strain relief and an aluminium under-mould shield protect the impedance-matched twisted pairs and foil-and-braid screening from EMI and physical stress. The clear jacket lets you inspect the wiring, and the reinforced ends resist damage from repeated insertion in tight spaces.

Questions about this item
Will this 7 ft USB 2.0 A-to-A extension still deliver 500 mA to a bus-powered drive connected to an older USB 1.1 port?
The cable uses 20-gauge power wires designed to maintain the full 500 mA USB 2.0 current rating at the female end, so a bus-powered drive should receive adequate power even on a legacy USB 1.1 host.
How can I verify the link is running at the rated 480 Mbps after plugging it in?
On Windows open Device Manager, expand Universal Serial Bus controllers, right-click the hub the device is attached to, choose Properties, then the Details tab and select Speed; it should read 480 Mbps for Hi-Speed operation.
Does the clear 7 ft extension come with any adapters or do I need to buy a separate USB A male-to-micro cable for my phone?
Only the USB A male-to-USB A female extension cable is included; any additional connectors such as micro-USB or USB-C cables must be purchased separately.
