USB PRINTER CABLE, LENGTH 10M USB-A (M) TO USB-B(M), WHITE AD-AB -74

The ADNET USB Printer Cable White 10 M is a high-speed data transfer cable designed for connecting USB devices like printers, scanners, and external hard drives to a computer or laptop.

Here’s a breakdown of its typical description and features:

Key Features:

• Cable Type: USB Printer Cable (specifically USB A Male to USB B Male).
• Length: 10 meters (approximately 32 feet). This extended length is a primary advantage, allowing for flexible placement of devices even if they are far from the computer.
• Color: White.
• Compatibility:
  • USB Versions: Supports USB 2.0 (high-speed data transfer up to 480 Mbps) and is backward compatible with USB 1.1 (full-speed, 12 Mbps) and USB 1.0 (low-speed, 1.5 Mbps).
  • Devices: Widely compatible with common devices that have a USB Type B port, including:
    • Printers (HP, Canon, Epson, Brother, Lexmark, Samsung, Dell, etc.)
    • Scanners
    • Servers
    • External hard drives
    • MIDI controllers, MIDI keyboards, DACs, development boards, etc.
  • Operating Systems: Compatible with Windows, Mac OS, and Linux.
• Connectors:
  • One end has a standard Type-A USB connector (for plugging into a computer/laptop).
  • The other end has a standard Type-B connector (for plugging into the printer or other compatible device).
• Data Transfer: High-speed data transfer up to 480 Mbps, ensuring fast and efficient printing and scanning. More stable than wireless (Wi-Fi) connections for data transmission.
• Construction/Quality:
  • Often features a round cable shape.
  • May use pure copper wire for reliable signal integrity.
  • Foil and braid shielding helps reduce EMI/RFI (electromagnetic interference/radio-frequency interference) and twisted-pair construction helps reduce crosstalk, ensuring high-speed, error-free data transfer.
  • Corrosion-resistant connectors (sometimes gold-plated or nickel-plated) for long-lasting performance and reliable conductivity.
  • Durable PVC jacket for protection against wear and tear.
  • Some models may feature an active signal booster, which is important for maintaining signal quality over longer cable lengths (like 10 meters) to prevent communication issues.
• Plug-and-Play: No additional drivers or software are typically required; simply plug it in and use it.

Common Uses:

• Connecting printers to computers in home or office setups, especially when the printer and computer are not in close proximity.
• Connecting scanners and other USB-B devices to a computer for data transfer.
• Setting up devices in larger workspaces, classrooms, or conference rooms where a longer cable reach is needed.

Advantages of a 10-meter cable:

• Extended Reach: Provides significant flexibility in placing your printer or other USB device further away from your computer.
• Convenience: Eliminates the need to reposition your computer or printer to establish a connection.
• Versatility: Useful in various environments, from home offices to larger commercial settings.
• Stable Connection: Wired connections are generally more stable and reliable than wireless connections, especially for consistent data transfer like printing.
• High Throughput: Supports high-speed data transfer (up to 480 Mbps for USB 2.0) for efficient operation.

In summary, the ADNET USB Printer Cable White 10 M is designed for reliable, high-speed data transfer over an extended distance, offering convenience and flexibility for connecting your printer or other USB-B devices.
