Microconnect USBAB3B USB Cable USB 2.0 3 m USB A USB B Black

The MicroConnect USBAB3B is a 3 m USB 2.0 cable with USB A (host) to USB B (device) connectors. It is designed for connecting external USB devices such as printers and scanners to a computer, USB hub or wall charger with a USB port. The cable supports data transmission up to 0.48 Gbit/s and features nickel-plated contacts for reliable connectivity in a black finish.

Advantages

The cable provides a stable, standardized USB 2.0 connection for peripheral devices with USB B sockets. Its 3 m length offers flexibility in device placement while nickel-plated contacts improve contact durability and reduce corrosion. The male-to-male USB A to USB B configuration ensures compatibility with a wide range of printers, scanners and other legacy USB devices.

How to use

Insert the USB A plug into the host device (computer, laptop, USB hub or wall charger with a USB A port) and the USB B plug into the peripheral device (printer, scanner or other USB B-equipped device). Ensure both devices are powered on; the operating system will recognise the connected device and establish communication using the USB 2.0 interface at up to 0.48 Gbit/s.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive tension on the cable. Use a direct connection to the host rather than chaining multiple adapters or extension cables, and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources to minimise interference.
