USB cable ShiverPeaks BS30-35085 15m USB 3.2 Gen 1 USB A USB A/Micro-USB B

The ShiverPeaks BS30-35085 USB cable is a 15 m data cable designed to support USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also marketed as USB 3.1 Gen 1) with a maximum theoretical data transfer rate of 5 Gbit/s. It provides one USB A connector on one end and a combined USB A / Micro-USB B connector on the other, featuring gold-plated contacts for improved contact reliability and reduced corrosion. Available in black and silver finishes, the cable is intended for situations that require reliable data transmission and extended reach between compatible devices.

Advantages

The cable supports high-speed data transfer up to 5 Gbit/s consistent with the USB 3.2 Gen 1 specification and is backward compatible with earlier USB standards. Gold-plated contacts increase contact longevity and help maintain stable signal quality over time. A 15 m length enables connections across larger workspaces, server rooms, or media setups without requiring signal-repeat equipment for short to moderate distances. The dual-style connector configuration increases compatibility with devices that use standard USB A or Micro-USB B ports.

Suitable for

• Connecting peripherals and external drives where extended cable length is required
• Media playback or recording setups where devices are positioned apart
• Workstations, server racks, or test benches needing a long data link
• Temporary or permanent cabling between devices with USB A and Micro-USB B interfaces

Key specifications

• USB version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1), up to 5 Gbit/s
• Connector 1: USB A (standard Type-A)
• Connector 2: USB A / Micro-USB B combined
• Cable length: 15 m
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Available colours: Black, Silver

How to use

Connect the USB A plug to the host device such as a computer, hub, or power source and connect the USB A/Micro-USB B end to the target peripheral or adapter that accepts Micro-USB B. Ensure both devices are powered off or idle when connecting for safe insertion, then power on and allow the operating system to recognize the device. For optimal transfer speeds, use host and peripheral ports that support USB 3.2 Gen 1. When using over longer distances, verify device recognition and transfer rates, as some devices may negotiate lower speeds depending on port capabilities.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and high-traffic crush points, and keep it away from strong electromagnetic sources to reduce interference. For sustained high-speed transfers, confirm that both connected devices support USB 3.2 Gen 1 and use appropriate power settings. If consistent high-bandwidth performance is required over extended installations, consider checking device compatibility and testing transfer rates before permanent installation.
