Short cable for nearby peripherals

This half-metre USB 2.0 cable links Micro-B devices such as external drives, hubs or printers to a standard USB-A port on a laptop or desktop. The 0.5 m length keeps the workspace tidy when the peripheral sits right next to the host. Nickel-plated contacts and moulded strain relief help maintain a solid connection during frequent plugging and unplugging.

480 Mbps Hi-Speed rating

The single specification that determines suitability is the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed data rate of 480 Mbps. It handles typical bulk endpoints for storage, printing or scanner traffic but will not reach the higher throughput of USB 3.0 or later standards. Buyers who need faster transfers for large media libraries or high-resolution video capture should choose a SuperSpeed cable instead.

Low power draw and quiet operation

As a passive copper cable it adds no active heat or noise to the system. Power delivery follows the USB 2.0 specification, so bus-powered devices draw only what the host port supplies. Shielding and fully moulded boots reduce electromagnetic interference without requiring additional cooling or power.

Questions about this item

What does the 480 Mbps rating mean when I plug this cable into my computer?

The 480 Mbps figure is the maximum theoretical throughput of the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed link; real-world transfer speeds will be lower and depend on the connected drive or peripheral.

Which USB standard does the USB A to Micro-B connector pair use, and what does that limit?

It uses USB 2.0, so the link is capped at 480 Mbps and cannot reach the higher speeds of USB 3.0 or later revisions.

What physical clearance does the 0.5 m cable with fully moulded boots need to fit?

The cable is half a metre long with moulded strain-relief boots on both ends, so allow at least that length plus a small bend radius behind each connector.
