One-metre USB 3.0 Type-A to Micro-B cable

This one-metre cable links a USB 3.0 Micro-B device such as a portable hard drive or compatible Samsung phone to a standard USB Type-A port. It is built for users who need a direct replacement or spare lead for those specific ports.

Practical limits of the USB 3.0 interface

The connection runs at up to 5 Gbps when both host and device support USB 3.0, dropping to USB 2.0 or 1.1 speeds on older ports. Cable length is fixed at one metre, so the device must sit close to the computer.

Check your device port before ordering

Verify that the peripheral uses the wider USB 3.0 Micro-B socket; the plug will not fit the smaller USB 2.0 Micro-B connector found on many older phones and drives. The host side requires a USB Type-A receptacle.

Questions about this item

What length should I pick for a desktop external-drive setup?

The cable is 1 metre long, which reaches from a rear motherboard port to a drive on the desk without excess slack.

Will the 5 Gbps rating actually move large video files quickly on my PC?

Real-world throughput hits the USB 3.0 ceiling of 5 Gbps, so multi-gigabyte video files transfer in seconds rather than minutes.

Does the USB 3.0 Micro-B plug limit speed if I plug it into an older USB 2.0 port?

The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports, but the connection will run at the slower port's maximum rate.
