Astrotek USB-3.0 A-A Extension Cable Blue 1Metre

Primary use case and target user: The Astrotek USB-3.0 A-A Extension Cable in vibrant blue is engineered for flexible, high-speed USB connectivity. It’s ideal for home offices and content-creation workflows where printers, external drives, or hubs need repositioning without sacrificing performance.

• Specifications: USB 3.0 Gen 1 (SuperSpeed) up to 5 Gbps; backward compatible with USB 2.0/1.x.
• Construction: Blue PVC jacket with shielded conductors and robust moulded connectors; integrated strain relief reduces wear during daily use.
• Connectors: Gold-plated USB-A interfaces for corrosion resistance and reliable contact.
• Length & power: 1 metre in length; bus-powered design, no external power supply required for standard peripherals.

Compatibility & system requirements: The cable works with Windows, macOS and Linux hosts equipped with USB 3.0 ports. It remains compatible with USB 2.x devices, though maximum throughput will reflect the device and port in use. No drivers are required; simply plug in and go.

Setup and installation: Position the cable so the bend radius is gentle, avoid sharp angles near the connectors, and keep it away from heat sources or heavy EMI. Connect the USB-A male end to the host and the female end to the peripheral; it supports hot-swapping.

Warranty & support: The Astrotek extension cable ships with the retailer’s warranty and post-purchase support. For assistance, contact the seller via the product page or order portal; response times are typically within 1–2 business days.
