What this cable connects

The aibileec USB-C to USB-B cable links Type-C or Thunderbolt 3 laptops, tablets and phones to USB-B printers, scanners, fax machines, MIDI keyboards, DACs, DJ controllers and similar audio gear. It is aimed at home-office users, musicians and mobile producers who need a direct wired link without driver installation.

Check your ports before ordering

Verify that your host device has a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port and that the peripheral uses a standard USB-B socket. The cable carries USB 2.0 signals at up to 480 Mbps and is backward compatible with USB 1.1 at 12 Mbps and USB 1.0 at 1.5 Mbps, so it will not deliver USB 3.x or higher bandwidth.

Replaces a legacy USB-A to USB-B lead

This cable upgrades a traditional USB-A to USB-B connection when the computer side has moved to USB-C only, removing the need for an adapter. The nylon-braided jacket, nickel-plated plugs and triple shielding are rated for 3000 bend cycles, making the jump worthwhile for setups that are plugged and unplugged frequently or run near other electrical equipment.

Questions about this item

Does the cable include any adapters or do I need to buy a USB-C to USB-A adapter separately?

The cable has a USB-C plug on one end and a USB-B plug on the other, so no adapter is needed to connect a USB-C host directly to a USB-B device.

Should I choose a different length or is the 6 ft version suitable for a desktop printer setup?

The 6 ft length provides enough reach for most desktop printer or audio equipment placements without excess cable clutter.

Will the 480 Mbps rating actually improve print speed over my old USB 1.1 cable?

The cable supports up to 480 Mbps and is backward compatible with USB 1.1 at 12 Mbps and USB 1.0 at 1.5 Mbps, so it will not be the bottleneck for any USB-B printer or MIDI device.
