  • Up to 5 Gbps transfer speed, ten times faster than USB 2.0
  • Works with existing USB 2.0 ports for broad compatibility
  • Shielded twisted-pair construction blocks electromagnetic interference
  • Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion for reliable contact
  • USB 3.0 Type-A to Type-B male connectors fit printers and peripherals

6 ft USB 3.0 Printer Cable A to B

This six-foot cable connects a USB 3.0 Type-B printer or scanner to a USB 3.0 Type-A host port. It suits offices and home users who need a reliable link for high-speed document output. The shielded twisted-pair construction reduces electromagnetic interference during transfers. Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion for lasting contact.

Shielded twisted-pair design

The STP layout suppresses electromagnetic noise that can corrupt data on long runs. Nickel plating on both the Type-A and Type-B plugs maintains low resistance over repeated insertions. Backward compatibility lets the cable fall back to USB 2.0 speeds on older ports without extra adapters. No driver installation is required for standard printer classes.

Check host and device port types before ordering

Verify that the computer provides a USB Type-A receptacle and the peripheral uses a USB Type-B receptacle, both 9-pin USB 3.0 versions. The cable will not fit Micro-B, Mini-B or USB-C device ports. Ensure the six-foot length reaches between your workstation and the printer without strain. Buyers needing a longer run or a different connector combination should select another cable.

Questions about this item

Will the nickel-plated connectors on this USB 3.0 cable corrode or need replacement over time?

Nickel-plated connectors resist oxidation and are rated for thousands of insertion cycles, so they should not require replacement under normal use.

What limits the 5 Gbps transfer rate during sustained heavy printing jobs?

The practical throughput ceiling is the USB 3.0 bus itself; host controller overhead and printer processing speed typically become the bottleneck before the cable shielding or conductors do.

Does the shielded twisted-pair design keep the cable cool and quiet during all-day operation?

The cable carries only low-voltage signalling current, so it generates negligible heat and produces no audible noise regardless of how long it runs.
