USB-kabel Helos 014687 USB 3.2 Gen 1 5 m blauw

The Helos 014687 USB 3.2 Gen 1 cable is a 5 m blue USB A to USB A lead designed for extended connections between compatible devices. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1) data rates for faster file transfers compared with legacy USB 2.0 connections. With identical male USB A connectors on both ends and a durable outer jacket, this cable connects computers, hubs, docking stations and peripherals over longer distances without the need for intermediate extensions.

Advantages

This 5 m Helos cable provides extended reach while maintaining the USB 3.2 Gen 1 signaling standard, enabling higher transfer speeds for compatible devices. The blue jacket makes the cable easy to identify among other leads, and the USB A to USB A configuration simplifies direct connections between devices that support host-to-host or device-to-device pairing using standard A ports. The build emphasizes reliability for repeated daily use in home and office environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting a computer to a hub, docking station or peripheral over a longer distance
• Transferring large files between compatible USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports
• Temporary direct connections between devices with USB A ports for data exchange

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB A (male) to USB A (male)
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1)
• Cable length: 5 m
• Color: Blue

How to use

Insert each USB A connector fully into the corresponding USB A port on the devices you want to connect. Ensure both ports support the desired USB standard to achieve optimal transfer speeds; if one device only supports USB 2.0, speeds will default to the lower standard. Avoid forcing connectors into ports and route the cable to prevent sharp bends or crushing that could damage internal conductors.

Recommendations

For the best performance, connect devices with native USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and use the cable in environments free from heavy electromagnetic interference. When routing the 5 m cable, keep it away from heat sources and moving parts to extend lifespan. If you need to connect devices requiring power negotiation or host-to-host communication beyond standard A-to-A wiring, verify device compatibility before use.
