Certified SuperSpeed USB 3.0 cable

This one-metre cable links a USB Type-A host to Micro-B 3.0 peripherals such as external drives or docking stations. It is built for users who need the full 5 Gbit/s bandwidth without signal loss over a short run. The connectors are moulded for strain relief and the jacket is black.

Sustained throughput

The cable carries the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed certification, so it maintains the rated 5 Gbit/s transfer rate during long file moves or continuous backup jobs. Shielding and the nine-pin Type-A plus ten-pin Micro-B pinout preserve signal integrity under constant load. No active electronics are present, so performance depends only on the connected host and device.

Deciding specification

The ten-pin USB 3.0 Micro-B connector is the single detail that determines compatibility; it will not fit the older five-pin Micro-B ports found on USB 2.0-only equipment. Buyers with legacy Micro-B 2.0 devices need a different cable.

Questions about this item

Does the 3.0 cable generate noticeable heat during all-day transfers?

The certified SuperSpeed cable runs at the standard 5 V bus power, so it stays cool even during continuous 10 Gbit/s-class traffic.

What port must my computer already have for this 3.3 ft cable to work?

A standard USB Type-A 9-pin port on the host side is required; the device end needs a USB 3.0 Micro-B 10-pin receptacle.

Will the 3.0 Micro-B connector fit the older USB 2.0 Micro-B port on my external drive?

No, the 10-pin SuperSpeed plug is physically wider than the legacy 5-pin Micro-B port, so it cannot mate with USB 2.0-only devices.
