40 cm down-angled USB 3.0 cable

This 40 cm USB 3.0 Type-A male to male cable has a 90 degree down-angled connector on one end and a straight connector on the other. It is designed for users who need to link two USB-A ports where clearance behind the port is tight. The copper conductors support USB 3.0 data rates while remaining backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices.

Tight-space installation and common issues

The down-angled plug lets you insert the cable into a female port even when surrounding space is limited, reducing strain on the port and cable. Simply align the connector and push straight in; no tools or drivers are required. The main installation problem occurs when the port orientation forces the cable to bend upward instead of downward, which can block adjacent ports or put stress on the angled joint.

5 Gbps throughput and length limits

When connected between a USB 3.0 host and a USB 3.0 device the cable delivers up to 5 Gbps, roughly 10 times the 480 Mbps ceiling of USB 2.0. At 40 cm it comfortably reaches from a rear motherboard header to a front-panel port or between stacked peripherals on a desk. Runs longer than 40 cm will need an active extender or hub because the copper construction is not rated for extended distances at full USB 3.0 speed.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the cable is delivering the full 5 Gbps USB 3.0 speed after connecting it?

Connect a USB 3.0 device to a USB 3.0 host port, then check the operating system device manager or system profiler to confirm the link is negotiated at SuperSpeed 5 Gbps rather than High-Speed 480 Mbps.

What comes in the box and are any adapters or drivers needed separately?

The package contains the 40 cm USB 3.0 down-angled Type-A male to straight Type-A male cable only; no adapters or drivers are required because the interface is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1.

Which length or angle variant should I choose for a tight rear port on a desktop tower?

Choose this 40 cm down-angled 90° version when the port faces downward and clearance is limited; the short length reduces cable strain and the right-angle plug fits flush against the chassis.
