kenable PRO Metal USB 2.0 Extension Cable A Male to A Female 24AWG High Speed Braided Lead Black 1m

Expand the reach of your USB devices with this professional-grade USB 2.0 extension cable from kenable. Featuring robust metal construction and premium braided sleeving, this 1 metre extension lead is built to withstand daily use whilst maintaining excellent signal integrity. The cable uses high-quality 24AWG copper conductors, which are thicker than standard USB cables. This increased gauge allows you to extend higher-powered USB devices over longer distances whilst maintaining stable power delivery and data transfer rates. USB 2.0 high-speed data transfer up to 480Mbps is fully supported, making this cable suitable for a wide range of peripherals including keyboards, mice, printers, webcams, USB hubs, game controllers, and card readers. Gold-plated connectors on both the Type-A male plug and female socket provide superior corrosion resistance compared to standard connectors. This ensures reliable connectivity even after repeated plugging and unplugging. The full metal housing adds durability whilst the braided cable sleeve protects the internal wiring from wear and tear. Shielding throughout the cable length helps eliminate electromagnetic and radio frequency interference that can disrupt USB signals, particularly important in environments with multiple electronic devices or near power cables. Please note that some USB devices cannot be extended due to voltage drop or timing issues. External hard drives, iPhone charging cables, and certain other devices may not function reliably with extension cables. We recommend checking your device manual or testing compatibility. The total combined length of your USB connection (original cable plus extension) should not exceed 5 metres. For distances beyond 5m, an active USB extension with built-in signal boosting is required. This cable features a standard USB Type-A male connector on one end and USB Type-A female socket on the other, providing universal compatibility with USB 2.0 and backwards compatibility with USB 1.1 devices.
