Cavo USB ShiverPeaks 3 m USB 3.0 USB 3.2 Gen 1

The ShiverPeaks 3m USB 3.0 USB 3.2 Gen 1 cable is a 3-metre data cable with a USB A connector on one end and a USB B connector on the other. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 transfer speeds up to 5 Gbit/s and is finished in blue with nickel-plated contacts for corrosion resistance and consistent signal quality. The length provides flexibility for connecting peripherals located further from a host computer while maintaining high-speed data throughput suitable for many common office and home devices.

Advantages

This USB A to USB B cable combines full USB 3.2 Gen 1 bandwidth with a longer 3 m length, allowing for convenient placement of printers, scanners and other peripherals without sacrificing transfer speed. The nickel-plated contacts enhance durability and maintain connection quality over repeated insertions. The cable’s build and shielding are designed to minimize interference and preserve a stable connection at USB 3.2 Gen 1 rates.

Suitable for

• Connecting printers and multifunction devices to desktop or laptop computers
• Linking scanners and external drives that use USB B ports
• Workstation setups where the host and peripheral are separated by up to 3 metres
• Office and home environments requiring reliable USB 3.2 Gen 1 data transfer

Key specifications

• Connector types: USB A (host) to USB B (device)
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (backwards compatible with USB 2.0)
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 5 Gbit/s
• Cable length: 3 m
• Contact plating: nickel-plated contacts
• Colour: blue

How to use

Insert the USB A connector into an available USB port on your computer or host device and connect the USB B connector to the compatible peripheral, such as a printer or scanner. Ensure both connectors are fully seated; the cable supports plug-and-play operation with standard drivers provided by operating systems. For best performance, use USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports on the host and device; the cable remains compatible with USB 2.0 ports but will operate at lower speeds in that case.

Recommendations

Position the cable to avoid sharp bends and prolonged tension at the connector ends. Keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference and do not route it alongside high-voltage power lines. For consistent USB 3.2 Gen 1 performance, connect both ends to ports that support USB 3.2 Gen 1 and replace the cable if physical damage or persistent connection issues occur.
