Cable USB-A a B Sharkoon 0,5 m con malla de aluminio

Sharkoon USB A-to-B Cable 0.5 m with Aluminum Braid is a compact data cable for connecting USB A hosts to USB B devices. At 0.5 meters its short length is intended for close-range setups such as desktop printers, scanners and external drives, reducing cable clutter while maintaining a stable data connection. The aluminum braided shield enhances mechanical robustness and provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference for reliable signal transmission.

Advantages

The aluminum braided shield increases durability and improves resistance to wear and bending compared with standard PVC-only jackets. A short 0.5 m length minimizes excess cable on desks and reduces the potential for tangling. The cable uses standard USB A and USB B connectors for broad compatibility with computers, printers, scanners and many external storage devices. Construction emphasizes signal integrity and practical convenience for close-proximity device connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers or laptops to USB B printers
• Linking scanners to a host computer in office environments
• Connecting external USB B-compatible hard drives or docking stations placed near the host
• Clean, short-run cabling in home offices and compact workstations

Key specifications

• Cable type: USB A (male) to USB B (male)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Shielding: aluminum braided shield for EMI protection
• Jacket: durable outer braid with inner insulation
• Intended use: data transfer and peripheral connectivity

How to use

Connect the USB A connector to the host device such as a computer or laptop and the USB B connector to the peripheral device such as a printer, scanner or external drive. Ensure both devices are powered according to their specifications before initiating data transfer or printing. For best results, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it clear of high-power cables or strong electromagnetic sources.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m cable when devices are positioned close to the host to maintain tidy cabling and optimal signal integrity; avoid excessive bending near the connector ends and keep the cable away from high-interference equipment to preserve transfer stability.
