USB 2.0 male-to-female cable Vention CBIBD 0.5 m, black

Vention CBIBD is a 0.5 m USB 2.0 male-to-female extension cable in black that provides an accessible USB-A port where needed. The cable preserves USB 2.0 data rates and offers a convenient female USB-A port to extend an existing connection, helping place peripherals, flash drives or mice in a more reachable position while reducing wear on the device's original ports.

Advantages

The Vention CBIBD cable protects device ports by allowing a permanent female connector to remain accessible, reducing the number of plug/unplug cycles on the computer or laptop. It is constructed from tinned copper conductors with a grounding wire, wrapped in aluminum foil and a metal braid, and finished with an outer PVC jacket to provide durability, EMI protection and long service life. The connector contacts are nickel-plated for corrosion resistance and reliable connectivity.
