USB Cable ShiverPeaks BS77195 5m USB 3.2 Gen 1 Micro-USB B Blue

The ShiverPeaks BS77195 USB cable is a 5 metre data cable that connects devices with a standard USB A plug to a Micro-USB B port. Designed to support USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1), it enables high-speed data transfer between compatible hosts and peripherals. The cable features a blue jacket and nickel-plated contacts for improved contact reliability and corrosion resistance.

Advantages

This 5 m cable offers extended reach for devices that are not located near a computer or hub, reducing the need for additional adapters. Support for USB 3.2 Gen 1 provides faster data throughput than USB 2.0 when both connected devices support the same generation. Nickel-plated contacts improve durability and stable signal transmission. The Micro-USB B connector maintains compatibility with a wide range of older and current devices that use that port form factor.

Suitable for

• Transferring large files between a computer and external devices that use Micro-USB B
• Connecting peripherals such as external hard drives, media players, or GPS units with Micro-USB B ports
• Situations that require longer cable reach, such as workstations, media setups, or mounting devices away from the host

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB A (standard Type-A plug)
• Connector 2: Micro-USB B
• USB version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1) — backward compatible with USB 2.0
• Cable length: 5 m
• Product colour: Blue
• Contact plating: nickel-plated contacts for corrosion resistance

How to use

Insert the USB A plug into the host device (computer, laptop, USB hub) and insert the Micro-USB B plug into the peripheral device until each connector seats firmly. Ensure both connected devices support the required USB generation to achieve the maximum data transfer speed; if one device supports only USB 2.0, transfer rates will operate at the lower supported speed. Avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors and route it to prevent strain during regular use.

Recommendations

For reliable high-speed transfers, connect directly to a USB 3.x port on the host and avoid passive hubs that do not support the same generation. Keep the cable free from tight coils and store it loosely to maintain performance and prolong connector life.
