InLine USB 3.2 Gen.1 kabel Type-A stekker / A stekker, zwart, 1m

The InLine USB 3.2 Gen.1 Cable Type A male / A male black 1m is a one-meter USB data cable designed for connecting USB-A devices that require high-speed data transfer. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1) with maximum theoretical throughput up to 5 Gbit/s. The cable features gold-plated contacts for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance, and a black jacket that fits standard desktop and portable setups.

Advantages

This USB 3.2 Gen.1 cable provides a balance of speed and compatibility, allowing fast transfers between computers and peripherals while remaining backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 hosts. The gold-plated contacts enhance signal reliability and reduce oxidation over time. The 1 m length gives practical reach for typical workstation or home-office arrangements without excessive slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting external hard drives and SSD enclosures to a computer
• Linking printers, scanners and multifunction devices to PCs
• Data sync between USB-A equipped devices and docking stations
• Temporary file transfers and backups where a direct USB-A to USB-A connection is supported

Key specifications

• Connector types: USB A male to USB A male
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbit/s)
• Cable length: 1 m
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: black

How to use

Insert each USB A male plug into the corresponding USB A port of the host and peripheral devices. Ensure both devices support a USB-A to USB-A connection; some host ports or device firmware may restrict direct device-to-device links. Once connected, the operating system should detect the peripheral automatically and enumerate the device. For full 5 Gbit/s performance, use compatible USB 3.x ports and drivers on both ends.

Recommendations

Use the cable for direct device connections where USB-A to USB-A is supported. Avoid routing the cable near strong electromagnetic sources or sharp edges. For sustained high-speed transfers, connect both ends to USB 3.x ports and confirm the host and peripheral drivers are up to date. If a device does not accept a USB-A to USB-A connection, use a manufacturer-recommended adapter or a different cable topology.
