Description
USB 3.0 A-to-A Cable for Host-to-Device Links
The Vention CONBG cable connects two USB-A ports with a male-to-male configuration, supporting data rates up to 5 Gbps. It measures 1.5 m and uses a black PVC jacket over tinned copper conductors. The cable targets direct links between a host and a USB 3.0 peripheral such as an external drive enclosure or a powered hub.
Signal integrity relies on a twofold shield: aluminium foil plus a copper-wire braid. The conductor set uses 24 AWG for power pairs and 28 AWG for data pairs, which keeps voltage drop within USB 3.0 tolerances at the full 1.5 m length. Nickel plating on both USB-A plugs limits contact oxidation across repeated mating cycles.
The assembly measures 5.4 mm across the jacket and weighs approximately 75 g. Operating temperature spans 0 °C to 40 °C, and the cable stores flat without kinking. Typical deployments include external 3.5-inch drive enclosures, USB 3.0 docking stations that present an A-type host port, and bench test rigs where a short A-to-A link replaces a longer adapter chain.
Key Features
5 Gbps USB 3.0 Signalling
The cable carries USB 3.2 Gen 1 traffic at 5 Gbps, ten times the USB 2.0 ceiling of 480 Mbps.Twofold Shielding
- Aluminium foil blocks high-frequency interference
- Copper-wire braid suppresses low-frequency noise
- Combined shield protects 5 Gbps signal integrity over 1.5 m
24 AWG / 28 AWG Conductors
Tinned copper power pairs at 24 AWG limit voltage drop while 28 AWG data pairs preserve signal rise times.Nickel-Plated USB-A Connectors
Both male plugs use nickel plating to resist corrosion and maintain stable contact resistance.1.5 m PVC Jacket
The 5.4 mm black PVC jacket balances flexibility with abrasion resistance for desk and rack routing.Backward Compatibility
The cable negotiates USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 speeds when either endpoint lacks SuperSpeed support.Driver-Free Operation
No software install is required; the host enumerates the link as a standard USB connection.Compact Storage
The 75 g assembly coils into a 1.5 m loop without permanent deformation for travel kits and field bags.

Quick start documentation
Why Choose the CONBG Cable
The 5 Gbps link moves large backup sets and disk images in a fraction of the time USB 2.0 requires.
Twofold shielding maintains signal integrity at the full 1.5 m length in electrically noisy racks.
24 AWG power conductors keep voltage drop inside USB 3.0 limits for bus-powered enclosures.
Nickel-plated plugs reduce intermittent contact after repeated disconnect cycles.
The 5.4 mm PVC jacket routes around tight chassis corners without cracking.
Rose Wanjiku (verified owner) –
The PVC jacket is a bit stiff out of the box, so plan your cable routing before you plug it in. Once settled, no complaints. USB 3.0 device enumeration was immediate on both Windows and Linux hosts.
Purity Chepkoech (verified owner) –
Good cable for the money. Copper conductors feel solid and I got the full 5Gbps link rate on my USB 3.0 dock.
Alice Nyambura (verified owner) –
Used it for a USB 3.0 hub extension at our reception desk. The 1.5m length is convenient, and the cable is thicker than the standard Type-A to Type-A leads you find locally. No dropouts on the printer or scanner connected to the hub.
Anthony Barasa (verified owner) –
I use this between a KVM switch and the USB 3.0 port on my monitor. Signal is stable with no random disconnects, which was a problem with the previous short cable I had. The connector housings are compact enough that they do not block adjacent ports on the switch.
Victor Ochieng (verified owner) –
Delivered on time and works as expected. Note that this is an A-to-A cable, so check your device actually has a Type-A host port before ordering.
Erick Mwangi (verified owner) –
Bought this to link an external USB 3.0 enclosure to my desktop and the transfer speeds stayed at SuperSpeed rates without dropping to USB 2.0. The connectors seat firmly on both ends and the black PVC jacket handles the bend at the back of the case without cracking.
George Kimani (verified owner) –
Second Vention cable I have ordered and both have been reliable. The 1.5m length gives just enough reach for the enclosure on my desk without excess slack.
