USB 3.0 A αρσενικό - USB A αρσενικό 5,00 m, ACT, SB0002

The ACT USB 3.0 A male to USB A male cable (5.00 m) provides a long, single-segment connection for devices that use standard USB A ports. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1) with a maximum theoretical data transfer rate of 5 Gbit/s, and is designed for data transfer and device connectivity over extended distances where short cables are impractical. The cable comes in black and has male USB A connectors on both ends to connect peripherals such as printers, external storage, docking stations and other USB-A-equipped devices.

Advantages

This USB A to A cable offers compatibility with USB 3.2 Gen 1 data rates up to 5 Gbit/s while remaining backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices. The 5.00 m length permits flexible device placement without relying on hubs or extensions, and the molded connectors with reinforced strain relief are intended to improve durability in regular use. The cable’s universal USB A connector shape ensures wide interoperability with legacy and current USB-A ports.

Suitable for

• Connecting external hard drives or SSD enclosures to a computer or docking station
• Attaching printers, scanners or other peripherals that use USB A ports
• Temporary data transfer setups where a longer reach is required
• Office and home workstations needing a tidy, single-cable connection between devices

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB A (male) to USB A (male)
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1), backward compatible with USB 2.0
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 5 Gbit/s (theoretical maximum)
• Cable length: 5.00 m
• Colour: Black
• Construction: molded connectors with strain relief for improved durability

How to use

Insert one USB A male connector into the host device’s USB A port and the other end into the peripheral’s USB A port. Ensure both devices are powered on as required. For optimal data transfer performance, connect to USB 3.2 Gen 1-capable ports on both devices; when one or both ports support only older USB versions, the connection will operate at the lower supported speed. Avoid tightly coiling the cable during use and ensure connectors are fully seated to prevent intermittent connections.

Recommendations

For reliable high-speed transfers, use the cable with devices and host controllers that support USB 3.2 Gen 1. Keep the cable away from high-interference sources and avoid running it parallel to power cables for long distances. When storing, loosely coil the cable to prevent kinks and strain on connectors. The cable is intended for data and standard charging functions; for dedicated high-current charging use cables and chargers specified for that purpose.
