USB 3.0 A -pistoke - USB A -pistoke 3,00 m, ACT, SB0001

The ACT USB 3.0 A male to USB A male cable, 3.00 m, provides a reliable wired connection between USB-A devices. Supporting USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also marketed as 3.1 Gen 1) with up to 5 Gbit/s transfer speed, this black cable features standard USB-A male connectors on both ends and a 3 metre cable length suitable for desktop, office and home setups that need greater reach between devices.

Advantages

The cable offers full backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices while delivering USB 3.2 Gen 1 performance when connected to compatible ports. Its 3 m length reduces the need for device repositioning and provides flexibility in workstation layout. The black outer jacket provides a neutral look that blends with most equipment. Durable construction and standard USB-A connectors ensure wide device compatibility and straightforward plug-and-play operation without additional drivers for most operating systems.

Suitable for

• Connecting external hard drives and SSD enclosures to computers with USB-A ports
• Linking printers, scanners or other peripherals that use USB-A connections
• Data transfer between USB-A host devices where extended cable length is required
• Temporary or permanent connections in office and home workstation setups

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB A (male) to USB A (male)
• USB version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1) — up to 5 Gbit/s
• Cable length: 3.00 m
• Color: Black
• Compatibility: Backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices

How to use

Connect one USB-A male end to the host device (PC, laptop or USB hub) and the other end to the peripheral (external drive, printer or other USB-A device). Ensure both devices support the required USB version to achieve maximum data rates; if either device supports only USB 2.0 or 1.1, the connection will operate at the lower speed. The cable is plug-and-play for typical operating systems; secure the connectors firmly to avoid intermittent connections.

Recommendations

For optimum performance, use the cable with USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports on both devices and avoid running the cable alongside high-power AC cables to minimize electromagnetic interference. If powering a device over USB-A is required, verify that the host provides sufficient current. Store the cable without tight kinks and avoid excessive bending near the connectors to prolong service life.
