USB 3.2 Gen.1 Cable Type A male / Type B male InLine 35350 5m black

The InLine USB 3.2 Gen.1 Cable Type A male / Type B male InLine 35350 5m black is a 5-metre USB data cable designed to connect host devices with USB Type A ports to peripheral devices with USB Type B ports. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 data rates up to 5 Gbit/s and is fitted with gold-plated contacts to maintain reliable signal transmission. The black jacket provides a discreet appearance while the length gives extended reach for desktop and workstation setups.

Advantages

This USB 3.2 Gen.1 cable combines high-speed data transfer performance with practical reach. Gold-plated contacts reduce oxidation and help maintain consistent connectivity. The cable’s 5 m length allows flexible placement of printers, scanners and other USB-B devices relative to the host, while the standardized Type A to Type B connectors ensure compatibility with a wide range of equipment that uses USB-B ports.

Suitable for

• Connecting printers and multifunction devices to desktop computers and USB hubs
• Linking scanners and document feeders to a host PC
• Connecting external USB-B peripherals such as audio interfaces or legacy devices
• Situations requiring extended reach without relying on active extenders

Key specifications

• Connector A: USB Type A, male
• Connector B: USB Type B, male
• USB specification: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (up to 5 Gbit/s)
• Cable length: 5 m
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: black

How to use

Connect the USB Type A male end to an available USB-A port on your computer, laptop or hub and plug the USB Type B male end into the USB-B port of the peripheral device. Ensure both devices are powered on as required. For best transfer rates, use host and peripheral ports that support USB 3.2 Gen 1 (SuperSpeed); if either side is limited to USB 2.0, the connection will fall back to the lower speed. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, verify that the connected devices support USB 3.2 Gen 1, use straight, untwisted routing and avoid kinking the cable. When installing permanent or semi-permanent connections, allow slack to reduce strain on connector ends and periodically inspect gold-plated contacts for cleanliness to maintain reliable data transfer.
