- 6 ft length gives flexible placement of devices
- Connects Micro-B peripherals to Type-A ports

Ideal for external USB 3.0 Micro-B drives
This cable connects a USB 3.0 Micro-B external hard drive to a standard Type-A port on a computer for file transfer and device charging. It also supports smartphones and tablets equipped with a USB 3.0 Micro-B port. The six-foot length allows flexible placement of the peripheral on a desk or in an office environment.
Sustained transfer at SuperSpeed rates
The USB 3.0 interface provides a SuperSpeed transfer mode rated at up to 5 Gbit/s (625 MB/s), which is about ten times faster than the USB 2.0 standard. Gold-plated connectors help maintain signal integrity during extended copy or backup sessions. The slim wire construction reduces clutter while the cable handles continuous data movement between the drive and the host.
Simple plug-and-play installation
No drivers are required; the cable works immediately when both ends are seated in their respective ports. The Micro-B connector fits only one way, so alignment is straightforward. The most common issue is attempting to insert the plug upside down, which can feel tight before the correct orientation is found. Ensure the host port is USB 3.0 (often blue) to achieve the rated speed.

Questions about this item
Does the 6 ft USB 3.0 Micro-B cable run hot or draw extra power during long file transfers?
The cable is passive and carries standard USB 3.0 current; it adds no active circuitry that would generate heat or increase power draw during sustained transfers.
What port must my computer already have to use this Type A to Micro-B cable?
Your computer needs a standard USB Type A port; the cable plugs directly into it and into the Micro-B 3.0 port on the external drive or device.
Will this USB 3.0 cable work with my older USB 2.0 external hard drive?
Yes, the cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports and devices, though transfer speeds will be limited to the USB 2.0 rate.
