USB 3.0 extension cable three-pack

This set contains three USB 3.0 Type A male-to-female extension cables, each 1.6 ft long. They are designed to extend the reach of USB peripherals such as flash drives, hard drives, printers, scanners, keyboards and mice from a PC, laptop, tablet or Mac. The cables are plug-and-play with no driver installation required.

Practical limits of the USB 3.0 interface

The cables support data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps, which is 10 times faster than USB 2.0 at 480 Mbps. Full speed is only achieved when both the host port and the connected device operate on USB 3.0. The cables are backward compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0, but the transfer rate will be limited by the slower bus.

Check your existing setup before ordering

Verify that your host device has a standard USB Type A port and that the peripheral you intend to connect also uses a Type A plug. The 1.6 ft length is suited for short-range extensions; it will not bridge longer distances across a room. Ensure the connected device does not exceed the power delivery capability of the host USB port.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1.6Ft or 3.3Ft length for my setup?

The 3.3Ft length listed in the title refers to the total combined length of the three 1.6Ft cables in the pack; each individual cable measures 1.6Ft.

What does the 5Gbps speed mean when I plug this into my computer?

The cable supports up to 5Gbps transfer when both the host port and the connected device are USB 3.0; actual speed will match the slower of the two ends.

Is this USB 3.0 Type A male to female cable limited by the USB 2.0 standard?

It is backward compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0, but when used with USB 3.0 ports the 5Gbps capability is active; the 480 Mbps limit only applies on USB 2.0 connections.
