USB Cable ACT USB 3.2 Gen1 A male - USB B male 3.00 m

This ACT USB 3.2 Gen1 A male to B male cable is a 3.00 m black USB data cable designed to connect computers and peripherals such as printers, scanners and external devices that use a USB-B port. The cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1) with a maximum theoretical data transfer rate of up to 5 Gbit/s, providing a balance of length and performance for desktop or office setups.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable data transmission at USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds while offering a longer 3.00 m reach for flexible device placement. Its USB A male and USB B male connectors are compatible with standard host ports and peripheral devices, and the black jacket gives a neutral, unobtrusive appearance. The design focuses on straightforward connectivity without additional adapters or drivers for typical plug-and-play use.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers or laptops to printers and multifunction devices
• Linking scanners and imaging devices to a host computer
• Establishing a wired connection to audio interfaces or other USB-B peripherals
• Workstation setups requiring a longer cable run without signal adapters

Key specifications

• Connector A: USB Type A, male
• Connector B: USB Type B, male
• USB version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1)
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 5 Gbit/s (theoretical)
• Cable length: 3.00 m
• Product colour: Black

How to use

Insert the USB A male connector into an available USB Type-A port on your computer or host device and plug the USB B male connector into the corresponding USB-B port on the peripheral device. Ensure both ends are fully seated to establish a stable connection. The cable is designed for plug-and-play operation with devices and operating systems that support USB 3.2 Gen 1; if the host or peripheral supports lower USB versions, the connection will operate at the highest mutually supported speed.

Recommendations

For best performance, route the cable away from sources of high electromagnetic interference, avoid tight bends or sharp kinks, and use direct connections rather than chaining multiple extension cables. If you require longer distances than 3.00 m, consider active or powered solutions specifically rated for extended lengths.
