3m USB 2.0 A-to-A Extension Cable

This 3 metre white cable adds reach to any USB 2.0 connection using a Type-A male plug on one end and a Type-A female port on the other. It suits desktop users who need to route a peripheral from a rear port to a more convenient spot. The extension also helps when a device cable is too short to reach a hub or docking station. Nickel-plated contacts and moulded strain relief support reliable daily use.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a passive copper cable it generates no heat and produces no audible noise during operation. Power delivery follows the USB 2.0 specification so connected devices draw only what the host port supplies. The 1.73 oz weight adds negligible load to ports or cable runs. Shielded construction helps maintain signal integrity over the full 9.84 ft length.

Build fit and flexibility

The slim connector mouldings allow insertion into tight spaces behind monitors, inside cabinets or alongside other cables. No driver installation is required; the cable works immediately with Windows, macOS and Linux hosts. It extends keyboards, mice, game controllers, tablet sync cables and similar USB 2.0 peripherals. RoHS compliant materials meet environmental standards for system integration.

Questions about this item

How do I plug in the 3m USB 2.0 extension cable without straining the nickel-plated Type A connectors?

Insert the male Type A end into the host port and the female Type A end into the device cable, keeping the thin moulded shells straight to avoid bending the 4-pin contacts inside the white jacket.

Will the shielding or connectors on this 3m white extension cable degrade and need replacement?

The moulded nickel-plated connectors and shielded construction are rated for the product lifetime, so no scheduled maintenance or connector replacement is required under normal indoor use.

At what point does the 3m length limit USB 2.0 signal integrity during sustained data transfer?

The 3m (9.84 ft) length matches the USB 2.0 specification maximum for a single cable, so sustained high-speed transfers stay within the certified signal-quality envelope.
