USB 3.0 Extension Cable 3-Pack

This three-pack of USB 3.0 Type A male-to-female cables adds 1.6 feet of reach to each connection. They link a computer or Windows tablet to hard drives, hubs, mice, keyboards, flash drives, printers and similar peripherals. Data transfer runs at up to 5 Gbps, ten times faster than USB 2.0, while remaining backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices. Gold-plated connectors, bare copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding aim for error-free transmission.

Desktop users needing extra reach

The cables suit anyone who wants to bring rear-panel ports forward without bending under a desk or behind a TV. They also help VR headsets, game consoles and card readers that sit farther from the host. Builders who need longer runs, right-angle connectors or USB-C endpoints will not find those options here. Buyers looking for active repeater cables beyond standard passive lengths should look elsewhere.

Moulded strain relief and grip treads

Each cable uses moulded strain relief at the connector junctions to resist wear from repeated plugging. Grip treads on the shells make insertion and removal easier by hand. The bare copper conductors and combined foil-and-braid shielding are built into the cable itself, so no separate driver or software installation is required. The three-pack format simply provides spare cables for multiple devices or locations.

Questions about this item

What USB port type must my computer or hub provide for these 1.6 ft cables to work?

A USB Type-A port (USB 3.0, 2.0 or 1.1) is required; the male plug on each cable is a standard Type-A connector.

Will a USB 2.0 flash drive still reach 5 Gbps when connected through one of these extension cables?

No — the drive remains limited to USB 2.0 speeds; the cable is backward compatible but cannot upgrade the device itself.

How can I verify the cable is delivering USB 3.0 performance after plugging it in?

Connect a USB 3.0 device and check that the OS reports a 5 Gbps SuperSpeed link, or run a file transfer and confirm speeds far above the 2.0 ceiling.
