Three-pack USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cables

This three-pack supplies three USB 3.0 Type A male-to-male cables, each measuring 1.64 ft. They connect USB 3.0 peripherals such as external hard drives, hubs, monitors or cameras to a computer for file transfer. The cords are intended for users who need multiple short links between Type A ports.

SuperSpeed USB 3.0 up to 5 Gbps

The cables support SuperSpeed USB 3.0 with data rates up to 5 Gbps when both host and device are USB 3.0 compliant. They are backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports, though speed will fall to the older standard. The 5 Gbps ceiling is the single specification that determines whether the cable meets a build's throughput needs.

Plug-and-play with no drivers required

Installation is straightforward: insert each Type A plug into the corresponding port on the host and peripheral. No software or drivers are needed. The most common issue is expecting 5 Gbps performance when either the source or the device only supports USB 2.0 or 1.1, which limits the link to the slower standard.

  • Backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports
  • Connects USB 3.0 Type A peripherals to a computer

Questions about this item

What does the 5 Gbps speed mean when I actually plug this cable into my computer and drive?

You can move large files such as video projects or drive images up to ten times faster than a USB 2.0 cable allows, provided both the host port and the peripheral support USB 3.0.

Which USB standard does the cable use and what does that limit in practice?

The cable follows the USB 3.0 specification, so the 5 Gbps ceiling only applies when both ends are USB 3.0 compliant; otherwise it falls back to USB 2.0 or 1.1 speeds.

Will the 1.64 ft length and male-to-male plugs reach from my laptop to a desktop drive enclosure?

At 1.64 ft the cable suits close-range connections such as a laptop beside a 2.5-inch drive enclosure or a cooling pad on the same desk.
