InLine USB 2.0 Flat Cable Type A male / female gold plated black 2m

InLine USB 2.0 Flat Cable Type A male/female gold plated black 2m is a 2-metre flat USB extension cable with Type A male and Type A female connectors. It supports USB 2.0 data transfer speeds up to 480 Mbit/s and is backwards compatible with USB 1.1 and USB 1.0 devices. Gold-plated contacts improve conductivity and resistance to corrosion while the flat cable design allows installation in narrow spaces such as behind furniture or under carpets without affecting data transmission.

Advantages
