The MicroConnect USB3.0AAF5B is a 5 m USB extension cable with male-to-female USB A connectors designed to extend USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1) connections. The cable supports a maximum data transfer rate of up to 5 Gbit/s, features nickel-plated contacts and a black jacket for durable everyday use.

Advantages

This USB A to A extension cable provides reliable signal transmission at SuperSpeed USB rates up to 5 Gbit/s and maintains compatibility with devices using USB A plugs. The nickel-plated contacts reduce corrosion and improve contact reliability, while the 5 m length allows flexible placement of devices without reconfiguring workstation layout.

Suitable for

• Extending USB 3.2 Gen 1 / USB 3.1 Gen 1 connections between a host and a device
• Connecting peripherals such as external drives, hubs or docking stations that use USB A
• Temporary or semi-permanent cable routing where additional reach is required (up to 5 m)

• Connector 2: USB A (female)
• USB version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 5 Gbit/s

How to use

Connect the male USB A plug of the MicroConnect USB3.0AAF5B into the host or upstream USB A port, then insert the downstream device's USB A plug into the cable's female USB A connector. Ensure connectors are fully seated. For best performance, use with devices and ports that support USB 3.2 Gen 1 to achieve up to 5 Gbit/s transfer speeds; when connected to USB 2.0 ports the speed will be limited accordingly.

Recommendations

To preserve signal quality over the 5 m length, avoid tight bends and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if contact damage or excessive wear is visible.
