Vszerda HX-U3-001 USB 3.1 Type A Male to USB 3.0 Type A Male Extension Flat FPC Cable 13cm

Extension cable for USB 3.1 and 3.0 devices

This flat FPC cable adds 13 centimetres of reach between a USB 3.1 Type A port and a USB 3.0 Type A device. The slim profile suits tight spaces behind laptops, desktops or external drive enclosures. Both ends use male connectors with nine pins each. It is aimed at users who need a short, tidy link without bulky round cables.

Replaces longer or round USB 3.0 leads

Swapping a standard round cable for this flat design reduces clutter in cramped ports or cable channels. The jump is worth it when the existing lead is too long, too stiff or blocks adjacent sockets. The 13 centimetre length targets setups where only a small gap must be bridged. Builders who need more reach or a different connector gender will not be served by this item.

Sustained transfer at rated 10 Gbps

The copper conductors and alloy-shell overmould are built to maintain the 10 Gbps rating during extended file moves to hard disks or other external storage. Flat FPC construction helps dissipate heat across the cable surface rather than concentrating it in a thick jacket. Performance stays consistent as long as the host controller and attached device both support the 3.1 Gen 2 signalling rate. Users relying on older 5 Gbps ports will see only the lower speed.
