USB 2.0 A-to-B cable for peripherals
This six-foot USB 2.0 cable connects a standard USB-A host port to a USB-B device port. It is built for printers, scanners, external drive enclosures and similar legacy peripherals that still use the square Type-B interface. The moulded strain relief and flexible jacket make it suitable for daily desk use.
USB 2.0 – 480 Mbit/s signalling rate
The cable is rated to the USB 2.0 specification with a maximum data rate of 480 Mbit/s. That bandwidth is the single figure that decides whether the link can sustain your device’s throughput; faster USB 3.x or 4.x devices will fall back to this speed when plugged in.
Six-foot reach with 16.4 ft specification limit
At 1.83 metres the cable spans a typical desk-to-tower gap without tension. The USB 2.0 standard permits passive cables up to 16.4 ft, so this length leaves headroom for routing around monitors or under mats. Runs beyond five metres would require an active repeater or hub.

Which USB standard does this cable follow and what does it limit?
This cable follows the USB 2.0 standard, which caps the data rate at 480 Mbit/s between the host and the peripheral.
How long is the cable and will it reach from my desk to a floor-standing device?
The cable is 6 ft (1.83 m) long, providing enough reach for typical desktop-to-floor setups.
