About this product
Need to connect two USB-A devices that don't have built-in cables — like an older external hard drive enclosure, a KVM switch, or a peripheral hub? This Cable Leader USB 2.0 USB-A to USB-A cable provides a stable male-to-male connection between any two USB-A ports, supporting data transfer up to 480 Mbps for everyday file transfers, device control, and peripheral linking. Built with double-shielded conductors to suppress EMI/RFI interference, copper wire for stable signal integrity, and fully molded connector boots with reinforced strain relief. Compatible with KVM switches, USB-A hubs, hard drive enclosures, KVM extenders, USB cooling pads, and any device requiring a USB-A male-to-male connection. Best for: connecting two USB-A devices that lack built-in cables. Not for: directly connecting two computers (use a USB bridge cable instead — direct A-to-A connection between PCs can damage USB ports). RoHS compliant.
Features
Connect Two USB-A Devices — KVM, Hub, Drive Enclosure
This cable provides a stable USB-A male-to-male connection between any two USB-A ports — perfect for KVM switches, peripheral hubs, external hard drive enclosures that ship without cables, or USB cooling pads that need a host connection. Supports data transfer up to 480 Mbps for everyday file transfers, device control, and peripheral linking from desktop, laptop, or server.
USB 2.0 480Mbps — Double-Shielded for Stability
Delivers stable USB 2.0 data transfer up to 480 Mbps with shielded conductors that suppress electromagnetic interference common around hard drives, monitors, and power adapters. Built with copper wire and fully molded connectors with reinforced strain relief at both ends. Backward compatible with USB 1.1 hosts.
Compatible with KVM, Hub — Not for PC-to-PC Direct
Works with KVM switches, USB-A hubs, hard drive enclosures, KVM extenders, USB cooling pads, and DAQ devices. Quick check: KVM switch / hub to host PC — Yes. External enclosure missing its cable — Yes. Direct PC-to-PC data transfer — No, requires a USB bridge cable. Charging USB-A device from another USB-A — No. For PC-to-PC linking, use a USB bridge or networking cable.
Double-Shielded Build — Built for Daily Desktop Use
Standard USB-A connectors fit any USB-A port without orientation issues. Built with shielded cable construction, copper conductors, and fully molded connector shells with reinforced strain relief at both ends. Designed for daily desktop and rack use — KVM rack mounting, behind-monitor cable management, and frequent re-routing.
Sample-Tested Production — Cable Leader Direct Support
Each cable is sample-tested during production for continuity, current rating, and data integrity. Manufactured to RoHS environmental standards (lead, mercury, and cadmium-free). If your cable arrives defective or stops working in normal use, Cable Leader handles replacement requests directly — no manufacturer redirects.
