USB High Speed 2.0 Extension Cable ShiverPeaks 77120-WF with Ferrite Connector

The USB High Speed 2.0 Extension Cable ShiverPeaks 77120-WF with Ferrite Connector is a 1.0 m extension solution that maintains USB 2.0 High Speed signaling (up to 480 Mbps) between devices. It features a standard A male to A female configuration with gold-plated contacts for reliable connection and corrosion resistance. The integrated ferrite connector helps suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI) to improve signal integrity in environments with competing electronic noise.

Advantages

This extension cable preserves USB 2.0 High Speed data rates while allowing flexible placement of peripherals and devices. Gold-plated contacts ensure stable contact and resist oxidation, reducing the risk of intermittent connections. The ferrite bead integrated near the connector provides passive EMI suppression, which can reduce data errors and interference with nearby wireless equipment. The cable is suitable for everyday use with a wide range of USB peripherals and offers a compact, low-profile solution for extending USB reach.

Suitable for

• Extending connections to printers and scanners
• Connecting external hard drives and USB flash drives that require USB 2.0 speed
• Lengthening reach for keyboards, mice and other peripherals
• Temporary or permanent extension of USB hubs and docking stations
• Reducing EMI-related issues in office or home setups

Key specifications

• Interface: USB Type-A male to USB Type-A female
• Standard: USB 2.0 High Speed (up to 480 Mbps)
• Cable length: 1.0 meter
• Connectors: gold-plated contacts for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance
• EMI suppression: integrated ferrite bead/connector
• Color: white

How to use

Connect the USB A male end of the extension cable to an available USB A port on your computer, hub or power source. Plug the USB A male connector of your peripheral or device into the A female end of the extension cable. Ensure connectors are fully seated to maintain reliable High Speed data transfer. The cable supports standard plug-and-play operation; no drivers are required for typical USB devices. For best performance, avoid routing the cable alongside high-power cables or sources of strong electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

For consistent High Speed performance, use this extension for USB 2.0 devices and avoid chaining multiple passive extensions. Keep the cable length within recommended limits for USB 2.0 operation and position the ferrite end closer to the noise source if EMI suppression is required.
