USB 3.0 Extension Cable A Male to A Female, 0.5-1.8 m

An extension is the unglamorous cable that earns its keep daily: the desktop tower sits under the desk while the flash drive, dongle or camera cable wants to plug in at hand height. This USB 3.0 SuperSpeed extension runs Type A male into the host port and offers Type A female wherever you actually work, keeping the 5 Gbps lane intact instead of dropping to a 2.0 extension’s 480 Mbps the moment speed matters.

Construction is the durable everyday standard: high-quality copper wire conductors under a PVC cover, moulded plugs with proper strain relief. Three lengths cover the map — 0.5 m for the desk edge, 1 m for tower-to-desktop, 1.8 m for across-the-room reaches to chargers and media drives. Fully backward compatible: a USB 2.0 device through this extension behaves exactly as before, just three metres further away.

Key features

• USB 3.0 Type A male to Type A female extension
• SuperSpeed 5 Gbps lane preserved through the lead
• Lengths: 0.5 m / 1 m / 1.8 m
• Copper conductors, durable PVC cover
• Backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1

Specifications

Serves phones, portable hard drives, tablets, PCs and anything else that speaks Type A — data and charge both pass through. One honest boundary: an extension is not a repeater; beyond roughly 3 m total, signal integrity rather than the connector becomes the limit, so keep long runs to the 1.8 m size or step up to an active repeater.

Typical applications

• Bringing tower and hub ports up to the desktop
• Extending flash-drive and camera cable reaches
• Charging positions across the room at full 3.0 speed
