USB Cable Sharkoon 3m USB3.0-A/USB3.0-B

The Sharkoon 3m USB Cable with USB3.0-A to USB3.0-B connectors supports SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.2 Gen 1 / 3.1 Gen 1) and enables data transfer rates up to 5 Gbit/s. The 3 meter black cable is suitable for connecting printers, external hard drives and other peripheral devices that use USB A to USB B connections.

Advantages

The cable provides high-speed data transfer up to 5 Gbit/s and supports a maximum current of 900 mA. Double shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for more stable signals, and 28 AWG conductors balance flexibility and signal integrity. The 3 m length offers extended reach for versatile device placement.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect the USB A plug to the host device (PC, laptop or hub) and the USB B plug to the peripheral (printer, external drive or audio device). Ensure both connected devices are powered on. For optimal transfer speeds, use hosts and peripherals that support USB 3.2 Gen 1; if either side only supports USB 2.0, transfer rates will fall back to the lower standard.

Recommendations

Route the cable away from large sources of electrical noise and avoid sharp bends to maintain signal integrity. For sustained high-speed transfers, verify that both the host and peripheral ports support SuperSpeed USB and that device drivers are up to date.
