UGREEN USB 2.0 A Male to A Male Cable 1m (Black)

UGREEN USB 2.0 A Male to A Male Cable 1m (Black) The UGREEN USB 2.0 A Male to A Male cable provides a direct connection between two USB-A devices, addressing specific use cases that standard USB cables cannot handle. This 1-meter cable enables data transfer between computers, connects printers or scanners to network hubs, and links compatible hardware without requiring host-device configurations. Students sharing files between lab computers and professionals managing network peripherals will find this cable solves connectivity challenges that arise in shared workspaces. Key Features & Benefits Dual Male-A Connectors: Both ends feature standard USB-A plugs, enabling direct device-to-device connections for data transfer modes and specialized hardware setups that require peer-to-peer communication. USB 2.0 Data Transfer: Supports up to 480 Mbps transfer speeds, sufficient for moving documents, presentations, and moderate-size media files between compatible systems in minutes rather than hours. 1-Meter Optimal Length: Provides enough reach for desk-to-desk connections or peripheral-to-hub setups without excess cable creating clutter, keeping workspaces organized and manageable. Reinforced Connector Joints: Molded strain relief at both plug points prevents cable damage from repeated plugging and unplugging, extending lifespan in high-use environments like computer labs. Universal Compatibility: Works with devices supporting USB host-to-host modes, including link cables for specific laptops, USB switches, data acquisition equipment, and certain printer-to-network configurations. Technical Specifications Cable Specifications Cable Type: USB 2.0 A Male to A Male Length: 1 meter (3.3 feet) Connector 1: USB Type-A Male Connector 2: USB Type-A Male Color: Black Performance Data Transfer Rate: Up to 480 Mbps (USB 2.0 standard) Power Delivery: Not designed for charging applications Signal Type: High-speed data transmission Physical Construction Cable Gauge: 28AWG data lines, 24AWG power lines (standard USB 2.0 specification) Shielding: Aluminum foil and braided shielding for EMI/RFI interference reduction Jacket Material: PVC outer insulation Connector Plating: Gold-plated contacts for corrosion resistance Compatibility Notes Operating Systems: Windows, macOS, Linux (driver-dependent) Use Case: Requires devices with USB host-to-host capability or bridging software Important: Does not work for standard computer-to-computer file transfer without specialized drivers Use Cases & Applications Computer Lab File Transfers: Some educational institutions use USB link cables with specialized software to transfer files between locked-down computers where network sharing is restricted. This cable supports compatible transfer applications when both machines recognize the connection. Network Printer Sharing: Connect a USB printer to a print server or network hub using male-to-male cables in configurations where the hub acts as a USB host, allowing multiple users to access one printer without individual computer connections. Data Acquisition Systems: Laboratory equipment and industrial sensors often require USB A-to-A cables to connect measurement devices to data loggers or control systems, particularly in engineering and science coursework. KVM Switch Connections: Keyboard-Video-Mouse switches sometimes use male-to-male USB cables for peripheral sharing between multiple computers, enabling students or professionals to control several machines from one desk setup. USB Bridging Devices: Specialized USB transfer bridges require this cable type to establish direct connections between computers for high-speed file migration without network infrastructure, useful when moving large project files between systems. Important Consideration: Standard computers do not support direct USB-A to USB-A connections for file transfer without additional software or bridge hardware. Attempting to connect two regular computers with this cable alone will not enable file sharing and may potentially cause issues. Verify your devices support host-to-host mode before purchasing. The UGREEN USB 2.0 A Male to A Male cable serves specialized connectivity needs rather than everyday consumer applications. It provides a reliable solution for specific hardware configurations in educational labs, shared office equipment, and technical installations where standard USB topologies do not apply.
