USB kábel S/CONN 5m USB 3.0 A - USB 3.0 B

The S/CONN 5m USB 3.0 A - USB 3.0 B cable by ShiverPeaks is a 5-metre data cable designed for connecting USB-A hosts to USB-B devices. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1) data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbit/s, features male USB-A and USB-B connectors, and has nickel-plated contacts for improved contact reliability and resistance to corrosion. The cable is blue and provides extended reach for desktop peripherals, printers, scanners and other USB-B equipped devices.

Advantages

This 5 m USB 3.0 A–B cable delivers high-speed data transfer up to 5 Gbit/s while maintaining compatibility with USB 2.0 devices. Nickel-plated contacts enhance durability and stable signal contact over time. The longer cable length gives flexibility in device placement without requiring additional adapters or extenders. The clear connector types (USB A to USB B) make it simple to identify and use with common peripherals.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs or laptops to printers and multifunction devices
• Linking external drives or docking stations with USB-B ports
• Setting up scanners, audio interfaces or other studio equipment with USB-B connectors
• Temporary or semi-permanent workstation layouts requiring extended cable length

Key specifications

• Connector types: USB A (male) to USB B (male)
• USB version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also known as USB 3.0 / USB 3.1 Gen 1)
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 5 Gbit/s
• Cable length: 5 m
• Contacts: nickel-plated
• Colour: blue

How to use

Connect the USB-A end to the host device such as a computer or docking station and plug the USB-B end into the peripheral device, ensuring each connector is fully seated. The cable is plug-and-play with supported operating systems and should automatically negotiate the highest mutually supported USB speed. For best results, connect directly to device ports rather than through low-quality passive hubs or unpowered extenders.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference. When using the cable over longer distances, prefer direct connections and verify that both connected devices support USB 3.2 Gen 1 to achieve 5 Gbit/s speeds. Inspect connectors periodically for debris or damage and replace the cable if contacts appear corroded despite the nickel plating.
