Short extension for USB 3.0 peripherals

This cable adds 30 cm of reach between a USB 3.0 Type-A port and a device such as an external SSD or camera. The male-to-female layout makes it a straightforward extension for tight desk setups or rear-mounted ports. It is not suited for users who need a longer run or a different connector type.

Sustained 5 Gbps throughput

When paired with a USB 3.0 host and device the link maintains up to 5 Gbps, roughly 10 times the bandwidth of USB 2.0. The gold-plated contacts and welded strain relief keep the signal stable during large file transfers. Performance will fall back to the slower standard if either end only supports 2.0.

Low-profile build with durable ends

The silver-coloured shell and single-piece moulded construction keep the cable light and resistant to accidental tugs. No active cooling or power draw is involved, so operation stays silent and adds no thermal load to the host. The short length also minimises voltage drop over the run.

Questions about this item

Does the 30 cm extension add noticeable heat or power loss when an SSD runs all day?

The cable is a passive 30 cm copper link with gold-plated contacts; it draws no power itself and adds negligible resistance, so an attached SSD sees the same thermal and power profile as a direct connection.

What must my host and device already provide for the 5 Gbps rate to work?

Both the host port and the connected device need USB 3.0 Type-A interfaces; the cable simply extends that link without converting protocols or supplying extra power.

Will this 30 cm male-to-female lead work reliably with my older USB 2.0 peripherals?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 Type-A gear, though data will run at 2.0 speeds instead of the 5 Gbps ceiling.
