Cable purpose and audience
The USBGear USBG-1708 is a 10ft USB 2.0 cable with a straight Type-A plug and a left-angled Type-B plug. It suits anyone connecting a printer, scanner or similar peripheral where the device port faces a wall or tight clearance. The UltraFlex jacket and over-moulded strain relief keep the cable pliable for routing around desk legs or through cable trays.
Who should choose another cable
Builders who need USB 3.0 or higher bandwidth should look elsewhere, as this assembly is limited to Hi-Speed 2.0 signalling. The fixed left-angle orientation on the B connector also means it will not help if the port requires a right-angle or straight exit. Users wanting a shorter run for a tidy desktop may prefer a different length.
Behaviour under sustained load
The 28AWG data pair and 24AWG power conductors are rated for 150V at 80°C, so the cable maintains its electrical performance during long print jobs or scanning sessions. UL and RoHS certifications confirm the materials meet flame and substance restrictions for continuous operation. Shielding to the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 specification reduces emitted noise that could affect nearby sensitive equipment.

Questions about this item
What type of USB ports must my computer and peripheral have to use this USB 2.0 A to B left-angle cable?
Your computer needs a standard USB-A port and the peripheral needs a USB-B port; the cable is 10 ft long with 28/24 AWG conductors and over-moulded connectors.
Will this left-angle USB-B connector still fit if my printer sits close to a wall and I keep using my existing USB-A hub?
The left-angle USB-B plug reduces rear clearance, and the straight USB-A end works with any standard USB-A hub or port you already own.
How can I verify the cable is operating as a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 link after I connect it?
The cable carries UL and RoHS markings, uses 28/24 AWG shielded UltraFlex construction, and the OS will report a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connection when the device enumerates.
