USB 2.0 A-Male to B-Male Cable 1m
This cable connects a USB Type-A port on a computer or hub to a device with a USB Type-B port such as a printer or scanner. It is built with 28/24 AWG conductors and 24K gold-plated connectors for corrosion resistance. A ferrite core is included to reduce electromagnetic interference during data transfer. The 1 metre length provides convenient reach for desktop setups.
Replaces worn or missing Type-B printer cables
The jump is worthwhile when an existing cable has damaged connectors, intermittent connectivity or insufficient length for the current desk layout. Gold-plated contacts and the ferrite core improve signal stability compared to basic unshielded cables. It restores full USB 2.0 480 Mbps transfer speed for printing, scanning and external storage tasks. Buyers who need a Type-C, Micro-B or Mini-B connection cannot use this cable.
Limited to USB 2.0 480 Mbps bandwidth
The interface caps throughput at 480 Mbps, so high-speed external SSDs or modern peripherals will not reach their potential. Cable length is fixed at 1 metre, which may be short for routing behind furniture or across larger workspaces. The Type-B connector fits only devices with that specific port, excluding newer standards. No power-delivery negotiation or alternate modes are supported.

Questions about this item
What connector types does the TeKit USB 2.0 cable use for the computer and the device?
The cable has a USB Type-A male plug for the host port and a USB Type-B male plug for the peripheral, so check that your printer or scanner presents a Type-B socket before ordering.
How do I attach the ferrite core correctly when I first connect the cable?
The ferrite core is moulded onto the cable near one end; simply plug both connectors in firmly — no separate clip or winding step is required.
Will the gold-plated contacts need cleaning or re-plating after extended use?
The 24K gold plating resists corrosion under normal indoor use, so no periodic cleaning or re-plating is expected for the life of the cable.
