Vszerda USB 3.0 Type-A Extension Cable
This 20cm cable extends a USB 3.0 Type-A connection between a host and a peripheral. It supports data rates up to 5Gbps with compatible equipment. The short length suits desktop arrangements where only a small reach is needed. It is not for users who need a longer cable run or a different connector type.
Check host port and device plug before ordering
Verify that the computer or hub provides a USB 3.0 Type-A port and that the peripheral uses a matching Type-A plug. The cable is backwards compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 ports, though speed will fall to the older standard. It cannot connect USB Type-C or Micro-USB devices directly. Ensure the 20cm reach covers the gap without strain.
No bundled software or accessories included
The package contains only the male-to-female extension cable itself. There are no driver discs, configuration utilities or adapter tips supplied. Performance depends entirely on the host controller and the attached device meeting the USB 3.0 specification. Buyers who need mounting hardware or cable-management clips must source them separately.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and is anything else needed to use the cable?
The box contains the 20 cm USB 3.0 Type-A male to female extension cable. No extra parts or adapters are required; plug it between a USB 3.0 host and a USB 3.0 device for full 5 Gbps throughput.
Should I choose a different length or version of this extension cable?
This model is the 20 cm version. If you need a longer reach, select a cable with a greater length; the 5 Gbps rating and USB 3.0 Type-A connectors remain the same across lengths.
What does the 5 Gbps figure mean when the cable is connected to my computer and peripheral?
With a USB 3.0 host and device the link runs at up to 5 Gbps, roughly ten times the 480 Mbps ceiling of USB 2.0. The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 ports at their native speeds.
