Slim Technical Overview

Extending Your Workspace Reach

This 3-metre cable helps you position peripherals more flexibly. You can connect a keyboard, mouse, or printer without straining the original short lead. The straight connectors ensure a secure fit into standard USB A ports. Because the cable is black, it blends discreetly with most UK office hardware. It is a simple way to improve desk ergonomics.

Reliable USB 2.0 Performance

The cable supports a maximum data transfer rate of 480 Mbit/s. This is suitable for standard peripherals like input devices or basic storage. For example, it handles everyday data tasks efficiently. However, it is not designed for high-speed video or large file transfers like USB 3.0. Always check your device’s USB requirement to ensure this speed is adequate.

Certified Materials and Build

The connector contacts are nickel-plated for consistent connectivity. The cable jacket is made from Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is a common material for flexibility and durability. The product holds REACH and RoHS compliance certificates. So, it meets specific EU standards for material safety. However, UK buyers should confirm if UKCA marking is required for their specific application, as this is not specified.

Simple Plug and Play Setup

This extension cable requires no drivers or software installation. You simply connect the male end to your host device and the female end to your peripheral. This makes it a convenient solution for immediate use. Because it is a passive cable, it draws no external power. Please verify that your source USB port can adequately power the extended device.
