Short silver USB 3.0 Type-A male-to-female extension cable, .98ft

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK USB 3.0 Type-A Male to Female Extension Cable .98ft Silver

SKU CH-HV1P-3QNWJ

A 0.98 ft USB 3.0 Type-A male-to-female extension cable supporting 5 Gbps data transfer for SSDs, drives and cameras

  • 5Gbps transfer speeds move large files up to 10x faster than USB 2.0
  • Male-to-female Type-A design extends existing USB ports without strain
  • Silver metal housing resists oxidation for durable daily use
  • Ultra-short 0.98ft length keeps desks tidy and prevents cable tangles
  • Works with SSDs, hard drives, cameras and all USB-A peripherals

Practical Port Extension

This .98ft USB 3.0 Type-A Male to Female cable extends existing USB-A ports for SSDs, external hard drives, digital cameras and other USB-A peripherals. It supports up to 5Gbps data transfer, which is 10x faster than USB 2.0 for large file transmission. The short length prevents cable tangling and keeps desktop arrangements neat. Ideal for home office, DIY hardware setups and photography equipment connections where a fixed, compact link is preferred.

Simple Plug-and-Play Installation

Connect the male end to your host port and the female end to your device cable; no drivers or software are required. Precisely molded connectors fit tightly to avoid loose contact and unexpected signal interruption. The silver metal housing provides anti-oxidation durability for long-term use. Ensure both ports are clean and fully seated; forced insertion or debris can damage the connector pins and cause unreliable performance.

Verify Port Type and Clearance

Confirm your host and device both use standard USB Type-A interfaces before ordering. The compact .98ft length suits fixed, close-range connections but will not bridge larger gaps between equipment. Check that adjacent ports or chassis panels leave enough room for the metal connector housing. This cable does not add power delivery beyond the host port specification, so bus-powered devices must stay within the host's current limit.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the cable is delivering the 5Gbps speed after connecting my SSD?

Transfer a large file to the SSD and check the transfer rate in your operating system; sustained speeds approaching 5Gbps indicate the link is operating at USB 3.0 performance.

What comes in the package and do I need any extra adapters for my external hard drive?

The box contains the 0.98ft USB 3.0 Type-A Male to Female extension cable only; no extra adapters are required for standard USB-A external hard drives.

Should I choose a longer cable or is the 0.98ft length right for a fixed desktop SSD connection?

The 0.98ft length is designed for fixed desktop setups to prevent tangling; choose it when the device sits close to the port, otherwise select a longer cable for more reach.
