Logo USB Cable USB-A to USB-B 5 m Grey

The Logo USB Cable USB-A to USB-B 5 m Grey is a reliable data connection cable designed to link devices equipped with USB-A and USB-B ports. With a generous length of 5 meters, this grey USB cable provides ample reach for connecting peripherals such as printers, scanners, and external storage drives to a computer or hub, ensuring a stable wired connection over a longer distance.

Advantages

This Logo USB cable offers a practical solution for setups where the host computer and peripheral device are located further apart, eliminating the need for signal repeaters in most standard setups. The sturdy grey exterior blends seamlessly with typical office and home electronics, while the standard connectors ensure broad compatibility with a wide variety of legacy and modern hardware.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers or laptops to standard printers and multi-function machines
• Linking desktop hardware to external USB-B compatible audio interfaces
• Connecting scanners and legacy data storage devices situated at a distance from the workstation

When it may not be suitable

This cable is designed exclusively for data transfer between USB-A and USB-B ports and does not support video signal transmission or power delivery applications requiring high wattage. Additionally, the 5-meter length may exceed the standard recommended distance for certain high-speed peripherals without the use of an active repeater.

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB-A
• Connector 2: USB-B
• Cable length: 5 meters
• Color: Grey
• Primary application: Data connection

How to use

To use the cable, insert the USB-A end into an available port on your computer, laptop, or USB hub. Connect the opposite USB-B end into the corresponding port on your peripheral device, such as a printer or scanner. Ensure both plugs are securely inserted to maintain a steady data connection during operation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your peripheral device utilizes a standard USB-B port
• Confirm that a 5-meter cable length is sufficient for your desk layout
• Check if your specific hardware setup requires active signal boosting for long cable runs

Usage recommendations: Route the cable safely along walls or under desks to avoid accidental tripping hazards and physical strain on the connectors. Avoid sharply bending the cable to preserve internal wiring integrity over time.
