USB Cable Bachmann 918.176 USB 3.2 Gen 1 1m Black

The Bachmann 918.176 USB cable is a 1 m black USB A‑to‑A cable designed for USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1) SuperSpeed data connections. It uses straight‑through wiring and is intended for direct connections where both ends remain standard USB A. The cable supports high data rates when used with compatible USB 3.0/3.2 Gen 1 devices and appropriate straight‑through USB 3.0 cables.

Advantages

This straight‑through Bachmann USB A/A cable preserves USB 3.2 Gen 1 SuperSpeed performance when paired with matching straight‑through keystone modules and connectors. At 1 m length it stays well within the maximum total cable length for full SuperSpeed operation, and its construction supports reliable, high‑quality data transfer when used with recommended components.

Suitable for

• Connecting two USB A SuperSpeed devices that require a straight‑through A‑to‑A connection
• Use with USB 3.0/3.2 Gen 1 hosts and peripherals for high data rates
• Short cable runs where full USB 3.2 Gen 1 speed is needed (e.g., direct device-to-device or device-to-keystone module)

How to use

Connect one USB A end to the host or peripheral and the other USB A end to the target device or keystone module. Ensure both the cable and any keystone modules are straight‑through wired; do not use crossed or null‑modem style wiring. For full USB 3.2 Gen 1 SuperSpeed throughput, keep the total connected cable length within the allowed limits and use quality connectors and modules.

Recommendations

To maintain SuperSpeed data rates, use straight‑through USB 3.0/3.2 Gen 1 cables and avoid crossed USB A wiring. USB 3.0 SuperSpeed connections are supported up to a total cable length of 4.5 m; when keystone modules are used, shorter cables may be necessary. Cable quality affects performance—Bachmann USB 3.0 cables are recommended.
