For equipment that explicitly calls for USB-A male-to-male
This connector combination is not a general-purpose computer-to-computer cable. It should be used only with devices whose manuals specify a USB-A male-to-male connection, such as selected hard-drive enclosures, switching devices, docking accessories and specialised peripherals.
5Gbps USB 3.0
Moves supported data up to ten times faster than USB 2.0.
Shielded signal path
Multiple shielding layers help control interference in compatible high-speed installations.
Four practical lengths
Choose a compact 0.5m link or extend up to 3m where the device specification permits.
Backward operation
Compatible USB 2.0 equipment can operate at USB 2.0 speed.
Never connect two ordinary host USB ports together
Do not use this cable to connect the USB-A ports of two computers, chargers or other host devices unless the equipment manufacturer explicitly requires that connection. Incorrect host-to-host use can damage equipment.
Where this cable fits best
External drive enclosures
Connect selected enclosures that provide a USB-A device-side interface.
KVM and switching devices
Use where the KVM or switch manual specifies an A-to-A upstream cable.
Hubs and docking accessories
Suitable for specialist products designed around a USB-A upstream port.
Capture and industrial peripherals
Useful for compatible measurement, capture or control hardware with explicit A-to-A requirements.
Please check before buying
- Do not connect two standard computer host ports together.
- Confirm that the target device specifically requires USB-A male-to-male.
- 5Gbps needs USB 3.x support at both ends.

Some enclosures, hubs, KVMs and specialist peripherals use a USB-A upstream connection.
Is it 5Gbps?
Yes, when both connected interfaces support USB 3.x.
Does it support charging?
It carries USB bus power as designed by the connected equipment but is not a charging cable.
