Cable and connectors
This 10 FT cable carries a USB 2.0 A male plug on one end and a USB 2.0 B male plug on the other. It is built for connecting printers, scanners, MIDI controllers, development boards, UPS units and similar legacy peripherals to a computer or laptop. The aluminium shell and gold-plated contacts are moulded with strain relief to withstand repeated insertion and cable flexing. The black jacket matches typical office and studio setups.
Data rate and headroom
The link runs at up to 480 Mbps and remains backward compliant with USB 1.1 at 12 Mbps and USB 1.0 at 1.5 Mbps. That bandwidth is sufficient for document printing, scanner uploads, MIDI timing and firmware updates on the listed devices. It will not satisfy high-throughput needs such as uncompressed video capture or bulk drive imaging that demand USB 3.0 or faster interfaces.
Thermals and power
Passive copper conductors draw only the bus power allowed by the USB 2.0 specification, so the cable generates no measurable heat and adds no fan noise to the system. The tinned-copper cores and shielded construction keep voltage drop low over the full 10 FT length, ensuring stable enumeration and reliable data transfer without an external power adapter.

Questions about this item
Will this 10 FT cable connect a USB 1.1 scanner to a modern USB A port?
Yes. The cable is backward compliant with USB 1.1 at 12 Mbps and USB 1.0 at 1.5 Mbps, so it works with older peripherals on current computers.
How can I verify the 480 Mbps link is active after plugging it in?
Check the host system's device manager or system profiler; it should list the connection speed as 480 Mbps for a USB 2.0 device.
Does the package include any adapters or only the A-to-B cable?
Only the 10 FT USB 2.0 A Male to B Male cable with gold-plated connectors and aluminium shells is supplied. No adapters are included.
