“Why does the description say a max data transfer rate of 480 mbps/sec if it doesn't alter the speed in any way as indicated in answers below? Like for example if I connect a cable with 10Gps/sec transfer rate what speed will I end up with?”

The information needs some corrections made to it. In the Overview it says 480MB/sec (megabytes) and then later it says 480 Mb(megabits), which is the maximum data rate of the older 2.0 standard. This cable IS usb 2.0 compatible or should be. In the specs it say 625 megabytes (MB) data rate. Here is the industry-standard breakdown: The old USB 2.0 standard can theoretically transfer data at a very high 480 megabits per second (mbps), or 60 megabytes per second (MBps). The newer USB 3.0 can handle up to 5gbps (640MBps)—over ten times as fast as the 2.0. In this length cable your speeds, depending on what is on both ends of the cable, will be less most of the time but in the ballpark if you are watching transfer details..
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I ma not sure on the numbers. But I used it for live streaming from my DV camera and it worked perfectly fine.
