USB 3.0 extension cable

The Sabrent CB-3030 is a three-foot USB 3.0 extension cable with a male Type-A plug on one end and a female Type-A port on the other. It connects a computer or Windows tablet to USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 peripherals such as hard drives, hubs, keyboards and printers. The 22 AWG conductors and shielding protect the signal from electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference.

Sustained transfer behaviour

Shielding reduces noise from electromagnetic and radio-frequency sources, keeping the signal clear with less bandwidth loss during extended use. The cable supports SuperSpeed data rates up to 5 Gbps, ten times faster than USB 2.0, while maintaining backwards compatibility with existing USB 2.0 devices.

Upgrade context

This cable replaces a shorter or USB 2.0-only lead when extra reach is needed without sacrificing SuperSpeed performance. It is not for users who require a different connector gender, a longer run than three feet, or a cable rated for power delivery beyond the USB 3.0 specification.

Questions about this item

Does the 22AWG gauge handle the 5 Gbps SuperSpeed signal over the full 3 ft without heating up?

The 22AWG conductors are rated for USB 3.0 SuperSpeed at 5 Gbps and the 3 ft length stays within the USB-IF cable-length limit, so no active cooling or heat concern arises.

What port type must my computer already have to use this A-Male to A-Female cable?

Your host needs a standard USB 3.0 Type-A port; the cable plugs directly into it and presents a female Type-A receptacle for the peripheral.

Will my existing USB 2.0 flash drives and mice work at their normal speed when connected through this extension?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with USB 2.0, so 2.0 devices operate at their native rate without degradation.
