InLine USB 3.2 Gen.1 Cable Type-A Plug / Type-B Plug, Black, 3m

The InLine USB 3.2 Gen.1 Cable Type A male / Type B male InLine 35330 is a 3 metre black data cable designed for direct wired connections between host devices and peripheral equipment. It provides up to 5 Gbit/s data transfer speed consistent with USB 3.2 Gen 1, and features gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission and long-term contact stability. The cable is compatible with devices that use standard USB Type-A and USB Type-B ports and is intended for high-speed wired data and device connectivity.

Advantages

The cable combines USB 3.2 Gen 1 performance with a classic Type A to Type B connection, allowing faster file transfers and lower latency compared with USB 2.0 alternatives. Gold-plated contacts reduce corrosion and improve conductivity. A 3 m length offers extended reach for flexible device placement while maintaining signal integrity suitable for everyday office and home use. The black outer jacket provides a neutral appearance and resistance to visible soiling.

Suitable for

• Connecting printers and multifunction devices to computers
• Linking scanners and medical/office peripherals requiring Type-B ports
• High-speed data transfer between host PCs and external USB-B equipped devices
• Workstation setups where a longer cable run (3 m) is needed

Key specifications

• Connector A: USB Type A, male
• Connector B: USB Type B, male
• Cable length: 3 m
• Data transfer rate: up to 5 Gbit/s (USB 3.2 Gen 1)
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: black

How to use

Insert the USB Type-A male plug into an available USB port on the host computer or hub and connect the USB Type-B male plug to the compatible peripheral device such as a printer or scanner. Ensure both connected devices are powered on and recognised by the operating system; install any required drivers for the peripheral if prompted. For optimal performance, use USB 3.2 Gen 1 compatible ports on the host device.

Recommendations

For sustained high-speed transfers, avoid tightly coiling the cable or running it parallel to power cables to reduce potential interference. Verify that host ports support USB 3.2 Gen 1 to achieve the specified 5 Gbit/s throughput; if connected to older USB 2.0 ports the connection will operate at reduced speeds. Store the cable in a dry environment and avoid excessive bending at the connector ends to prolong service life.
