Description

StarTech USB2HAB6 USB Printer Cable

Overview

The StarTech USB2HAB6 is a 6-foot USB 2.0 cable designed to connect devices with a USB Type-B port to a host device with a USB Type-A port. This cable is essential for connecting peripherals like printers, scanners, and external hard drives to computers or network devices. Its 480 Mbps data transfer rate ensures efficient data exchange for typical peripheral operations. The 22/28 AWG wire gauge supports reliable signal integrity over its 6-foot length, making it suitable for standard desktop or workstation setups where direct device connection is required.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any device featuring a standard USB Type-B female port, commonly found on printers, scanners, docking stations, and some external storage enclosures. The Type-A connector interfaces with standard USB ports on computers, laptops, and network video recorders (NVRs) that support USB peripherals for tasks such as firmware updates or direct data access.

Installation Notes

The cable features a standard USB 2.0 Type-A connector on one end and a USB Type-B connector on the other. Simply plug the Type-A end into the host device and the Type-B end into the peripheral. Ensure the peripheral is powered on and recognized by the host operating system. The 4.8 mm cable outer diameter and 88.0 g weight are typical for standard USB 2.0 cables, requiring no special mounting or handling considerations beyond standard cable management.
