About this product

Need a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 cable for your external SSD, USB 3.0 docking station, or pro audio interface? This Cable Leader USB 3.0 USB-A to USB-B SuperSpeed cable replaces the cable that came with your device, supporting full 5 Gbps data transfer for fast SSD throughput, docking station bandwidth, and uncompressed audio streaming. The USB-B end is the larger SuperSpeed variant (with the extra block for USB 3.0 contacts) used by most USB 3.0 external storage and pro audio gear. Built with double-shielded conductors and gold-plated contacts. Compatible with WD My Passport, Seagate Backup Plus, LaCie external drives; CalDigit, OWC docking stations; Focusrite Scarlett 18i20, PreSonus, RME audio interfaces; professional video capture cards. Best for: SuperSpeed connection to USB-B equipped devices. Not for: USB 2.0 USB-B printers (cable will work but is overkill — use USB 2.0 A-B cable). RoHS compliant.

Features
  • USB 3.0 to USB-B — SSD, Dock, Audio Interface

    Replace the cable that came with your USB 3.0 device — external SSD, docking station, or pro audio interface — at full SuperSpeed 5 Gbps. The USB-B end is the larger SuperSpeed variant used by USB 3.0 external storage, professional docking stations, and high-end audio interfaces.

  • 5Gbps SuperSpeed — Stable for Storage and Audio

    Delivers stable USB 3.0 data transfer up to 5 Gbps with shielded cable construction to help maintain stable signal at SuperSpeed bandwidth. Critical for external NVMe SSDs (which can saturate USB 3.0 bandwidth) and uncompressed multi-channel audio interfaces. Backward compatible with USB 2.0.

  • USB 3.0 USB-B Devices — Not for USB 2.0 Printers

    Works with WD, Seagate, LaCie external drives; CalDigit, OWC docks; Focusrite Scarlett 18i20, PreSonus, RME audio interfaces. Quick check: External USB 3.0 SSD or hard drive — Yes. USB 3.0 docking station or audio interface — Yes. USB 2.0 printer or scanner — Cable works, but USB 2.0 cable is sufficient. USB-C device — No, use USB-C to USB-B cable. For USB-C laptops, use a USB-C to USB-B cable.

  • Gold-Plated Contacts + Double-Shielded — Built for Pro Use

    Standard USB 3.0 USB-A and USB-B SuperSpeed connectors fit any USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 host (backward compatible). Built with shielded cable construction, gold-plated contacts, and fully molded strain relief. Designed for studio audio, video editing workstation, and professional external storage use.

  • 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.

Questions & Answers
  • I currently have this cable to connect a Dell docking station to a laptop. However, I was given a new work laptop that only has 2 USB-C ports. Can I use this same cable but get a USB-A to USB-C adapter? Or is there a USB-C to USB-B SuperSpeed Cable?
