USB 2.0 A-to-A extension cable
This four-foot cable adds length between a host port and a standard USB-A peripheral such as a printer or scanner. It carries USB 2.0 signals with a male plug on one end and a female receptacle on the other. The black PVC jacket is designed to remain flexible in tight routing spaces.
USB 2.0 length limit of 16.5 feet
The USB 2.0 specification caps a single connection at roughly 16.5 feet, so this cable must be used within that total path length. It uses 28 AWG data conductors and 24 AWG power conductors to support the rated 480 Mbit/s signalling rate. Foil-and-braid shielding reduces EMI and RFI interference on the link.
Simple plug-in installation
No drivers or tools are required; the connectors seat with a standard friction fit. The moulded strain relief protects the solder joints from bending stress at the backshell. Routing the cable without sharp kinks preserves the shielding and the flexible jacket over time.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 4 ft length or a longer one for my printer?
The 4 ft cable keeps the total run well under the 16.5 ft USB 2.0 limit, so you can add it to an existing lead without signal loss.
Will the 480 Mbit/s rating actually deliver that speed to my scanner?
Yes, the 28 AWG data pair and 24 AWG power wires are built to sustain the full 480 Mbit/s high-speed rate over the 4 ft distance.
Does the USB 2.0 A male to A female interface limit what I can plug in?
The cable passes the USB 2.0 specification, so any standard USB 2.0 or 1.1 peripheral will work at up to 480 Mbit/s.
