USB Cable S/CONN 1.8m USB3.0 A - USB3.0 B

The ShiverPeaks USB Cable S/CONN 1.8m USB3.0 A - USB3.0 B is a 1.8 metre data cable designed for USB 3.2 Gen 1 performance with transfer speeds up to 5 Gbit/s. It comes in a blue jacket and has male USB A and USB B connectors for direct connection between hosts and peripheral devices. Nickel-plated contacts maintain reliable signal conductivity and reduce corrosion for longer service life.

Advantages

This USB3.0 A to USB3.0 B cable supports high-speed data transfer in accordance with USB 3.2 Gen 1 specifications, making it suitable for large file transfers and fast communication between devices. The 1.8 m length provides flexibility in placement without excessive slack. Durable construction and nickel-plated contacts increase connectivity stability and resistance to wear. The identifiable blue colour helps distinguish this cable among other connectors and cables.

Suitable for

• Connecting printers and multifunction devices to a computer
• Linking external hard drives, RAID enclosures, and docking stations
• Connecting USB-compatible audio interfaces and professional peripherals
• Replacing or extending existing USB A to USB B connections

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB A (male) to USB B (male)
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (compatible with USB 3.0 / 3.1 Gen 1)
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 5 Gbit/s
• Cable length: 1.8 m
• Exterior colour: blue
• Contact plating: nickel-plated contacts for corrosion resistance

How to use

Connect the USB A end to the host computer or USB hub and the USB B end to the peripheral device such as a printer, scanner, or external drive. Ensure both devices are powered on and the connectors are fully seated to establish a stable data connection. The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports, though connection speed will default to the lower standard when used with older ports.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable near large sources of electromagnetic interference and do not sharply bend or kink the cable near the connectors. Use the 1.8 m length to maintain tidy cable routing and prevent strain on device ports. When connecting high-speed storage devices, verify that both host and peripheral support USB 3.2 Gen 1 to achieve maximum transfer rates.
