Amazon Basics 2-Pack USB 3.0 Extension Cable, Fast Data Transfer 4.8Gbps, USB-A Male to Female, Gold-Plated Connectors, 3 Foot, Black

Works well like advertised. Good value. Safe product. Good size for my desk. Buy this product.

I am using these on older iMacs since all the ports are on the back. These are perfect for allowing USB connections without having to “fish around blindly” on the back of the machine. Great product for when you really don’t need a hub, but need to connect and disconnect one item easily!

Very good cables for short extensions.

This cord is really nice! Thank you Amazon! Feels and looks very durable!

I purchased a pair of these to reach from my desk setup to a new spot for my computer. One connects to a USB 2 hub in my monitor with its own 1.5ish m cable that has my mouse, keyboard, sound card/microphone, and controller on it; the other is left empty to be able to plug things into my computer as needed. The cables themselves seem well built; plugged-in devices do protrude a bit but that is fairly typical for USB extension cables (... and my laptop ...) and for a permanent connection I would use electrical tape or similar to secure it. At least there is plastic over the female connector - that is not a guarantee with extension cables! The one running to the monitor works well enough, and the other is able to run a portable USB 3 hard drive with its own 0.5 m cable at expected speed (but you're definitely at the limits of USB 3 there). I guess we will see how long it holds up, since other reviewers did mention degradation. The branding sticker is bad, though, depending on your plans Not only does it present a curved surface, it's on the "underside" of the cable. They really should have used a flat sticker, silkscreened, or simply embossed their branding like they have on other cables they sell (and, for that matter, the USB logos on these cables!). At least it's easy enough to take the sticker off by using a knife or something to lift a corner.

Usb extenders are very valuable! The picture is a direct representation of the cables. The length is long enough to reach outlets, and makes for a great jumper. I also noticed my phone charging a lot faster when using these cables.

Not a fan of the Amazon Basics brand but I have to say this cord seems very sturdy and it does the job perfectly. I use it to extend the USB based controls on my PC gaming system as well as extend a printer USB connection and it works like a champ. The cord is thick which I like as my cords tend to suffer mechanical damage from their surroundings but thickness means an increase in size/mass along with loss in flexibility. Difficult to know whether the connector ends will be prone to damage such as breakage of the plastic tab inside as some do and based only on examining the ends of the cord I probably would shop around a bit more of this cord if I thought I would be frequently plugging/unplugging it. Not saying it looks bad, just saying it looks in line with the price range. Will update should my current positive opinion change.

Guess I got a bad one -- data transfer rate same as USB 2.0. Tested copying a 2 GB file, which took 11 secs direct to device with its (short) native USB 3.0 cable. Same test done with this cable between the PC and device -- about 50 secs! -- which is the same performance as the 10 ft USB 2.0 cable I was hoping to replace. In other words, it performs just like a USB 2.0 cable. So many good reviews -- and I saw one review -- they did a data transfer test like me, got good results though (what up with that???????). It's not worth the energy to return. Thoughts: Amazon should take their good name off this cable. ######################## UPDATE: my bad. This cable is just fine. What I learned: 3 meters is pretty close to max length per USB 3.0 spec. So, without a repeater, you won't be able to use a cable of any significant length in conjunction with this extension cable. I initially tested with a native USB cable about 1 meter long -- and adding this 3 meter extension resulted in a total length of 4 meters -- too long for reliability in USB 3.0. So of course i experienced dropped signal, poor performance, and such. Tip: if you're not using a repeater, only plug this cable into a cable that is a few inches long (a mini), or else you'll likely get faults. Weird that USB 2.0 spec allowed for longer cables than USB 3.0 spec, but there it is. Websearch: "USB 3.0 cable max length" for more info ########################

While 6 of them are doing usb 2.0 job, the other are on USB 3.1. Transfer top speed 916MB/s from ramdisk, all other devices that I have are capping under the cables capabilities. So the cables are good enough for the gen 2 in my opinion, despite the length.

As described. Works great

It extends between the wall and my powerbank because the original cable from the powerbank packaging was short.

Qui n'a jamais pesté contre les fabricants qui équipent leurs produits d'accessoires ridicules ? En l’occurrence il s'agit d'un disque dur externe WD Elements USB 3.0 avec un câble de 45 cm de long ! Cette rallonge est donc indispensable et change la vie puisqu'elle permet de connecter ce périphérique de stockage sans risque de chute intempestive. La présentation est de bonne facture et laisse augurer de la fiabilité à long terme : connecteurs plaqués or, câble épais et prise femelle gaînée. Il faut préciser que l'utilisation de cette rallonge ne perturbe pas la rapidité des transferts puisque le débit ne subit aucune dégradation notable. Je n'ai pas d'incompatibilité ni de dysfonctionnement à signaler à ce jour. Et ceci à un prix vraiment raisonnable!

USB3.0対応のHDDが手元にあったので購入 値段も安め PCのUSB3.0ポートに接続して試しましたが 特に動作に問題はなく、正常にデータ転送が行われていました。 速度も速い（のではないか）と思います。 ※あくまで体感です。 ケーブルが硬いというレビューを見ましたが 別にそんなに硬いとは感じませんでした。 使い易いです。
