Know before you buy
Right-angle connectors are designed for tight spaces where a standard cable would stick out too far. They allow your device to sit closer to a wall or shelf, reducing cable strain and preventing accidental disconnections.
Yes, this cable uses a standard Type-B connector, which is the industry-standard port found on the vast majority of printers, scanners, and external hard drives.
It supports USB 2.0 data transfer speeds of up to 480 Mbps. This is sufficient for most printers, scanners, and peripheral devices, though it is not intended for high-bandwidth applications like external SSDs that require USB 3.0 or higher.
The cable features molded connectors with built-in strain relief to prevent fraying at the connection points. It is also shielded with aluminum-mylar foil and braiding to protect against signal interference, ensuring a reliable connection over time.
The lifetime warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product. If the cable fails under normal use, StarTech.com will provide a replacement.
