Kramer Electronics USB 3.0 Plug to Plug Cable 1.8m

Kramer Electronics USB-A (male) to USB-A (male) 3.0 cable, 1.8 m long, in black. The cable uses tinned copper stranded 28 AWG conductors and supports USB 3.0 SuperSpeed data transmission while remaining backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices. It is designed for full-duplex communications and can deliver power up to 3.6 W.

Advantages

The cable contains more internal conductors than USB 2.x cables to support higher data rates and SuperSpeed signalling. Tinned copper stranded 28 AWG construction provides flexibility and reliable electrical contact. Its USB-A to USB-A male connectors and 1.8 m length make it suitable for connecting devices with standard USB A ports while maintaining compatibility with USB 2.0 hosts and peripherals.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, hubs or chargers to USB-A devices that accept a male-to-male USB-A connection
• Data transfer tasks that benefit from USB 3.0 SuperSpeed when both endpoints support it
• Use where a 1.8 m cable length is required for reach between devices

Key specifications

• Connectors: USB A (male) — USB A (male)
• USB version: USB 3.0 (backward compatible with USB 2.0)
• Cable length: 1.8 m
• Conductor type: Tinned copper stranded, 28 AWG
• Power delivery: up to 3.6 W
• Communications: full-duplex

How to use

Insert one USB-A male connector into the host or upstream device and the other USB-A male connector into the peripheral or downstream device. Ensure both devices accept a male-to-male USB-A connection and support the required USB version for expected data rates. For SuperSpeed data transfer, confirm that both endpoints support USB 3.0; otherwise the connection will operate at the lower USB 2.0 speeds.

Recommendations

Do not exceed recommended distances for specific setups that require signal integrity; although USB 3.0 does not define a strict maximum cable length, follow system manufacturer guidance for reliable SuperSpeed performance. Avoid sharp bends and physical strain on the connectors to preserve cable life and electrical contact.
