FAQs
What devices can I connect with this USB extension cable?
This cable works with any standard USB 2.0 peripheral, including printers, external hard drives, cameras, mice, keyboards, and other USB devices that use Type A connectors.
Is 3 metres long enough for my office setup?
The 3 metre length is suitable for most office environments, allowing you to position USB devices away from your computer whilst maintaining reliable connectivity. If you need a longer cable, consider chaining multiple extension cables together.
Will this cable work with USB 3.0 devices?
This is a USB 2.0 cable. Whilst USB 3.0 devices may physically connect, they will operate at USB 2.0 speeds (480 Mbps) rather than at their full USB 3.0 capability.
What does RoHS compliance mean?
RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance means the cable is manufactured without restricted toxic substances, meeting environmental and safety standards recognised in Australia and internationally.
What is the warranty coverage?
The Astrotek USB 2.0 Extension Cable comes with a 12-month manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Can I use this cable with older USB 1.1 devices?
Yes, this USB 2.0 cable is backward compatible with USB 1.1 devices. The cable will function, but data transfer speeds will be limited to USB 1.1 speeds (12 Mbps).
Is the transparent design purely aesthetic?
The transparent design allows visibility of the internal wiring, which can be useful for troubleshooting and inspection, but is primarily a design choice. Functionality is identical to standard cables.
