USB 3.0 A to Micro-B cable 1 ft

This USB 3.0 cable connects a USB 3.0 Micro-B peripheral such as a printer, scanner or external storage drive to a standard USB Type-A port on a laptop or desktop. It is built for USB 3.0 SuperSpeed operation up to 5 Gbps.

Check your host port and device connector

Verify that the computer provides a USB 3.0 Type-A port and that the peripheral uses a USB 3.0 Micro-B socket; the cable will not fit the smaller Micro-B 2.0 connector found on many phones. The 1 ft length suits only close-range desktop setups.

Braid shield and over-moulded strain relief

A braided shield runs the full length to reduce interference at 5 Gbps, while over-moulded jackets protect the connector bases during repeated insertion. The short, stiff cable resists tangling but offers no slack for routing behind equipment.

Questions about this item

What does the 1 ft USB 3.0 A-to-Micro-B cable include, and is any adapter or driver needed separately?

The box contains only the cable itself with over-moulded connector jackets; no adapter, driver disc or extra hardware is required for standard USB 3.0 hosts.

Should I choose this 1 ft length or a longer version for a desktop-to-printer link?

Pick the 1 ft cable when the printer sits right next to the laptop or desktop; select a longer cable only if the extra reach is genuinely needed.

What does the 5 Gbps headline rate mean when I copy files to an external drive?

The 5 Gbps figure is the USB 3.0 bus ceiling; real-world throughput will be lower and depends on the drive, host controller and file sizes.
