UGREEN 1 m USB 3.0 Type-A Extension Cable, 5 Gbps (10368)

Overview

The UGREEN 10368 adds 1 m between a USB-A port and the device plugged into it, so a flash drive or receiver sits within reach. It is a passive USB 3.0 extension, USB-A male to USB-A female, carrying data at up to 5 Gbps and passing the port’s ordinary USB bus power. There is no repeater and no power input: it simply lengthens the connection.

Is it right for you?

• Suits a USB 3.x drive, receiver or other device that needs to be a little further from the computer.
• Data runs at up to 5 Gbps when the port and device both support USB 3.x.
• Power comes from the host port only, subject to voltage drop over the extra length and the device’s demand; a power-hungry device may need a powered hub.
• It is not an active repeater; for longer runs, an active extension is the better choice.

Key features

• 1 m passive extension, USB-A male to USB-A female.
• Up to 5 Gbps (USB 3.0 / USB 3.2 Gen 1 class).
• Tin-plated conductors with foil and braid shielding in a PVC jacket.
• No driver for the cable; connected device requirements still apply.

What else you need

A computer or host with a USB-A port and the device or its cable. Nothing else is needed: no power supply and no software.
