USB cable ShiverPeaks BS77005 5m USB 2.0 Grey

The ShiverPeaks BS77005 5m USB 2.0 Grey cable provides a 5 metre connection with USB 2.0 technology and USB A connectors on both ends. Designed for data transfer and device connectivity, it supports a maximum theoretical transfer rate of 0.48 Gbit/s and is suitable for linking computers, peripherals and other compatible equipment where a longer reach is needed. The grey jacket and standard USB A terminations make the cable compatible with a wide range of legacy and contemporary devices that accept USB A plugs.

Advantages

The cable combines a long 5 m length with standard USB A connectors on both ends for easy, plug-and-play connections. Compliance with USB 2.0 ensures predictable data throughput up to 0.48 Gbit/s for file transfers, peripheral use and basic synchronization tasks. Its neutral grey colour and conventional construction allow straightforward routing and placement in home or office setups where a longer cable run is required.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop or laptop computers to external hard drives and optical drives with USB A
• Linking printers, scanners and other USB-A peripherals located further from the host device
• Temporary workstation setups where device placement requires extended cable length
• Data transfer and device charging at USB 2.0 speeds between two USB A ports (host-to-host use depends on device support)

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB A to USB A
• USB standard: USB 2.0, up to 0.48 Gbit/s
• Cable length: 5 m
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Insert each USB A connector into the corresponding USB A ports of the devices to be connected. Ensure both devices support USB 2.0 communication; for some host-to-host connections special configuration or a dedicated data transfer cable may be required. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and reduce strain on the connectors. After connecting, the operating system should recognise attached peripherals automatically and install drivers if needed.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid coiling the cable tightly and keep it away from large sources of electromagnetic interference. Use for typical USB 2.0 data transfers and peripheral connections; if higher transfer rates are required, consider a USB 3.x cable and compatible devices. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if the insulation or plugs show visible damage.
