How to use

Plug one USB A male connector into the host device (PC, laptop or hub) and the other USB A male connector into the peripheral or the cable you want to extend.

Ensure connectors are fully inserted to avoid intermittent connections.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this 0.5 m extension for short-distance connections and avoid coiling tightly or placing under heavy objects. If you require longer runs or active signal boosting, choose an active USB extension or a powered USB hub to preserve USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds.
