  • Up to 5Gbps transfer moves large files quickly

Short cable for fast desktop transfers

This 0.98ft USB 3.0 Type-A to Micro B cable connects external SSDs, hard drives and cameras to a computer for rapid file backups. It suits users who want a tidy link between desktop ports and portable storage without excess slack. The silver metal shells resist oxidation for a durable, professional look.

Sustained 5Gbps throughput for large batches

The cable maintains up to 5Gbps transfer rates during extended copy sessions, moving 4K video folders and disk images without the slowdowns common on USB 2.0 links. Well-tinned copper conductors and tight connector tolerances keep signal loss low so throughput stays steady across the whole transfer. No active electronics are involved, so performance scales with the host controller and drive speed.

Check your device port and length need

Verify the peripheral uses a USB 3.0 Micro B socket; older Micro B 2.0 ports will fit physically but run at the slower 2.0 rate. Ensure the 0.98ft reach spans the gap between your port and the device without strain. This cable carries data only and does not supply extra power beyond the host port rating.

Questions about this item

Does the 0.98ft USB 3.0 cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when transferring large files all day?

The cable is passive and only carries the 5Gbps signal; it adds no active circuitry, so heat and power draw stay at normal USB levels even during continuous transfers.

What must my device already have for this Type-A to Micro B cable to work?

Your host needs a USB Type-A port and your peripheral must use a USB 3.0 Micro B socket — the cable cannot convert between different connector types.

Will the 5Gbps link slow down if I plug it into an older USB 2.0 port on my PC?

Yes, the connection will fall back to USB 2.0 speeds when either end is limited to that standard.
