Extension Cable for USB 3.0 Peripherals

This 16.4 ft USB 3.0 A-Male to A-Female extension cable extends the reach between a computer or Windows tablet and USB 3.0 or 2.0 peripherals. It supports hard drives, hubs, mice, keyboards, flash drives and printers. The blue cable carries data at up to 5 Gbps while maintaining backwards compatibility with existing USB 2.0 devices.

Upgrade from Shorter or USB 2.0 Cables

The jump is worth it when the standard cable length leaves a peripheral out of reach or when a USB 2.0 link caps transfer speed at a fraction of the 5 Gbps rate. SuperSpeed USB 3.0 delivers up to 10 times the throughput of USB 2.0, so large file moves to external drives or hubs finish noticeably faster. Backwards compatibility means older gear still works without adapters.

Simple Plug-in Installation

Connect the A-Male end to the host port and the A-Female end to the device cable; no drivers or power adapters are required. The only common issue is exceeding the practical length limit for USB 3.0 signalling, which can cause intermittent disconnects or reduced speed if the total run goes beyond specification. Ensure both connectors seat fully and avoid sharp bends near the plugs.

Questions about this item

Does the 16.4 ft cable fit standard USB 3.0 A ports on both ends?

Yes, the cable uses a USB 3.0 A-Male connector on one side and a USB 3.0 A-Female port on the other, matching standard USB 3.0 Type-A interfaces.

How do I install the extension cable and what step is often missed?

Plug the A-Male end into the host computer or tablet and the peripheral into the A-Female end; the step often missed is ensuring both connections are fully seated to achieve 5 Gbps SuperSpeed rates.

Will the cable or connectors need replacement after extended use?

The cable is passive with no active electronics, so only physical wear on the connectors or cable jacket would require replacement; USB 3.0 maintains backwards compatibility with 2.0 devices.
