Short cable for portable drives

This one-foot USB 3.0 cable connects a USB-A host to devices with a Micro-B 3.0 port such as external hard drives, SSDs and the Samsung Galaxy S5 or Note 3. The short length reduces clutter when travelling and suits setups where the drive sits next to the laptop. It is not for users who need a longer reach to a desktop tower or a wall-mounted hub.

Thermals noise and power

The cable draws bus power only, so it adds no separate power supply or fan noise to the system. Gold-plated connectors and bare copper conductors keep resistance low, limiting heat during sustained 5 Gbps transfers. Double shielding with aluminium foil and braid suppresses electromagnetic interference that could degrade signal integrity.

Braided jacket and molded strain relief

A nylon braided jacket and aluminum alloy connector housings with molded strain relief resist kinking and repeated bending on the road. The package includes only the single 1 ft cable; no adapters, driver discs or management software are supplied.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the USB 3.0 Micro B end into my portable hard drive without bending the connector?

Align the wider Micro B plug with the port on the drive, then push straight in until the gold-plated connectors seat fully; the moulded strain relief prevents the cable from kinking at the joint.

Will the braided jacket or aluminium alloy case need any upkeep after months of travel use?

The braided jacket and aluminium alloy case are designed for repeated bending and require no maintenance; simply wipe the connectors with a dry cloth if dust builds up.

At what point does the 5 Gbps transfer rate drop during a long, continuous backup?

The cable supports up to 5 Gbps and is backward compatible with USB 2.0; sustained throughput is limited by the connected drive and host controller, not by the cable itself.
