6 ft USB 2.0 extension cable

This six-foot cable adds length to any existing USB 2.0 connection using a standard Type A male plug on one end and a Type A female port on the other. It suits desktop users who need to reach rear-panel ports without moving the computer, as well as anyone extending a game-controller or mobile-device cable. Builders requiring USB 3.0 or USB-C throughput should choose a different cable.

480 Mbit/s bandwidth with foil-and-braid shielding

The link runs at the full USB 2.0 rate of 480 Mbit/s, adequate for keyboards, mice, printers, gamepads and phone syncing or charging. Aluminium-Mylar foil plus a braided shield protects the 24/28 AWG conductors from interference in typical office or living-room environments. Very long runs or high-power devices may exceed the voltage-drop allowance for this gauge.

PVC jacket and wide device compatibility

A black polyvinyl chloride jacket gives the cable flexibility and abrasion resistance for routing behind desks or along baseboards. The supplier confirms trouble-free operation with Apple iPad Air, iPad mini, Samsung Galaxy Tab tablets, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 controllers, and Apple iMac computers. No driver installation or software bundle is included.
