Connection extension

The StarTech USBEXTAA6IN is a short USB 2.0 Type A male-to-female extension cable designed for users who need a small amount of extra reach between a host port and a peripheral. It suits notebook and desktop owners connecting flash drives or similar devices where the existing cable falls just short.

Build integration

The six-inch length adds minimal bulk inside a chassis or on a desk, requiring only a free Type A port on the computer or hub and a matching Type A plug on the device cable. Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion while the male end plugs directly into the host and the female end accepts the peripheral, freeing the user from strain on short factory leads.

Capacity and headroom

Rated for USB 2.0 signalling, the cable comfortably handles keyboards, mice, printers and flash drives at high-speed rates without signal degradation over its short run. It does not support the higher throughput of USB 3.x or USB4 devices, so builders needing SuperSpeed or faster links should select a cable specified for those standards.

Questions about this item

How much extra reach does the 6-inch USB 2.0 Type A male-to-female extension add to an existing cable?

The adapter adds exactly 6 inches of length between a USB Type A port and a standard USB Type A plug.

Does the nickel-plated 6-inch extension cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power during all-day use?

As a passive copper cable it adds no active circuitry, so it produces no measurable heat and draws no power beyond what the connected device requires.

What port and device combination is required for this male-to-female USB 2.0 Type A extension to function?

A free USB 2.0 Type A female port on the host and a USB 2.0 Type A male plug on the peripheral cable are all that is needed.
