Connection type and length

This USBGear cable provides a USB 3.0 Type-A male to Type-B male link in a 6 inch form. It is built for connecting printers, scanners, or hubs directly to a host port. The short length keeps cable clutter to a minimum in tight setups. Super-speed compliance supports data rates up to 5Gbps.

Suitable uses and limits

The cable suits users who need a very short, direct device connection without excess slack. It is not for buyers who need more reach between the computer and the peripheral. It also does not fit devices that require Micro-B, Type-C, or legacy Type-B connectors.

Deciding specification

The connector pairing of USB 3.0 Type-A male to Type-B male is the single detail that determines compatibility. Only equipment with a matching Type-B 3.0 port will accept this plug. Verify the port on your printer, scanner, or hub before purchasing.
