USB 3.0 A-to-A cable three-pack

This pack contains three USB 3.0 Type-A male-to-male cables each measuring 3.3 feet. They connect peripherals such as hard-drive enclosures, DVD players or laptop coolers directly to a host computer. The plug-and-play design requires no driver installation on Mac or PC. Gold-plated contacts and foil-and-braid shielding support reliable data transfer.

5 Gbps SuperSpeed transfer rate

The cables operate at the USB 3.0 specification of up to 5 Gbps when both host and device support USB 3.0. This is ten times the throughput of USB 2.0. They remain backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.0 ports, automatically negotiating the highest common speed. Buyers who need USB-C or Micro-B connectors cannot use these cables.

Low heat and silent operation

Passive copper conductors generate negligible heat during normal file transfers or charging. No active cooling or moving parts are present, so the cables run completely silent. Power draw follows the USB 3.0 bus specification and adds no measurable load to the host port. Users requiring longer runs beyond 3.3 feet should consider active or optical alternatives.

Questions about this item

What real-world transfer speed can I expect from the 5 Gbps rating when the cable is connected to a USB 3.0 port?

The cable supports up to 5 Gbps when both the host and device are USB 3.0 compliant; actual throughput depends on the connected hardware and cable length.

Does the USB 3.0 Type-A to Type-A interface limit the cable to host-to-host use, or can it connect a peripheral to a computer?

This A-to-A cable is designed to link a USB 3.0 peripheral such as a hard-drive enclosure or printer to a host computer; it is not intended for direct PC-to-PC connections.

Will the 3.3 ft length and standard Type-A plugs fit my external hard-drive enclosure without strain?

At 3.3 ft the cable reaches most desktop setups, and the standard USB 3.0 Type-A male connectors mate securely with enclosure and computer ports.
