SMUGDESK USB 3.0 A Male to Female Extension Cable 1.6ft 3-Pack

SKU CH-3M29-WXQW9

A three-pack of 1.6 ft USB 3.0 Type-A male-to-female extension cables supporting 5 Gbps data transfer and backwards compatibility with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices

  • Extend USB ports to convenient spots with 1.6 ft cable
  • Transfer data at up to 5 Gbps with USB 3.0 speed
  • Charge and sync devices simultaneously on one cable
  • Works with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices for broad compatibility
  • Molded strain relief and grip treads protect ports and ease handling

Extension length and pack size

This three-pack provides three 1.6 ft USB 3.0 Type A male-to-female cables. They let you move peripherals such as flash drives, printers, or hubs to a more accessible spot without reaching behind a desk or TV. The short length keeps clutter low while adding just enough reach for desktop setups.

USB 3.0 speed ceiling and backward compatibility

The cables support SuperSpeed USB 3.0 at up to 5 Gbps, which is 10 times the throughput of USB 2.0. They remain fully compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices, so older peripherals still work, but they cannot exceed the 5 Gbps limit of the USB 3.0 specification.

Everyday peripheral headroom

The 5 Gbps bandwidth comfortably handles external hard drives, card readers, scanners, keyboards, and mice without hysteresis or data loss. It is not suited for applications that demand higher throughput than USB 3.0 provides, such as multi-drive RAID arrays or next-generation docking stations requiring 10 Gbps or more.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 1.6ft three-pack or look for a longer single cable?

The listing only offers the 1.6ft length in a three-pack; choose it when you need several short extensions for desktop peripherals, otherwise you will need a different product for longer runs.

Will the 5 Gbps SuperSpeed rating hold up when the cable is plugged into a USB 3.0 hard drive?

Yes, the cable supports up to 5 Gbps with USB 3.0 devices and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1, so a USB 3.0 hard drive will operate at its full interface speed.

Does the USB 3.0 Type A male-to-female connection limit charging power or data throughput?

The cable carries both data and charging current at USB 3.0 specifications, so it does not impose any extra cap beyond the host port and device limits.
