Description

StarTech USB31CB1M USB-C to USB-B 3.2 Gen 2 Cable

Overview

The StarTech USB31CB1M provides a reliable connection between modern USB-C enabled laptops or tablets and legacy USB-B 3.2 devices. This 1-meter (3.3 ft) cable is essential for integrating USB-B peripherals, such as network video recorders (NVRs), external hard drives, or specialized industrial equipment, into a USB-C centric workflow. Its 10Gbps data transfer rate ensures that the full performance of USB 3.2 Gen 2 devices is maintained, preventing bottlenecks common with older USB standards.

Compatibility

This cable is designed to connect to any USB 3.2 Type-B port found on devices like StarTech NVRs, certain network switches, or external storage arrays. The USB-C connector on the other end is compatible with Thunderbolt 3 and USB 3.1/3.2 ports on laptops, ultrabooks, and tablets from major manufacturers. It supports devices requiring high bandwidth, such as high-resolution surveillance cameras connected via USB-based capture devices or high-speed data acquisition equipment.

Installation Notes

The cable features 24/30 AWG wire gauge construction, balancing flexibility with the necessary conductor size for 10Gbps data transmission. The connectors are designed for secure engagement, minimizing signal loss. The cable's slim profile (6mm width, 4mm height) allows for neat routing in tight spaces, such as behind server racks or within equipment enclosures.
