Good to know
USB Type-B is the square connector commonly found on printers, scanners and many audio interfaces. Check that your device uses Type-B rather than micro-USB, USB-C or mini-USB before ordering. USB 2.0 is limited to 480 Mbit/s – if you need faster transfer, for example to an external hard drive or a high-volume document scanner, choose a USB 3.0 cable instead.

PC & HiFi Örebro recommends
Kramer C-USB/AB is a cost-effective and reliable choice for printers, scanners and other USB-B equipment where USB 2.0 speed is more than sufficient. The moulded strain relief and substantial shielding make it considerably more durable than a basic budget cable. If you need to transfer large amounts of data quickly, we recommend the USB 3.0 variant Kramer C-USB3/AB, and for distances longer than 5 metres an active USB extender.
