Monoprice 5436 USB 2.0 A Male to B Male 15 ft Gold Plated Cable

Monoprice 5436 USB 2.0 Printer Cable

This fifteen-foot cable connects a USB-A host to a USB-B device such as a printer or scanner. It supports the USB 2.0 standard with a maximum data rate of four hundred and eighty megabits per second. The male-to-male design suits standard peripheral ports on desktop and laptop computers. It is intended for users who need a reliable wired link at a moderate distance.

Gold-Plated Connectors and Heavy-Gauge Wire

Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion to maintain signal integrity over time. The cable uses a twenty-eight and twenty-four AWG construction for durable power and data conductors. As a passive copper cable it draws no external power and produces no audible noise during operation. The black PVC jacket protects the internal wiring from everyday wear.

Replaces Shorter or Worn USB-A-to-B Leads

This length suits setups where the peripheral sits farther from the host than standard cables allow. It upgrades from thinner or damaged leads that cause intermittent connections or slower transfer speeds. The jump is worth it when the extra reach eliminates the need for hubs or repositioning hardware. Buyers who need USB 3.0 speeds or USB-C connectors should select a different cable.
