Good to know
The cable has a USB Type-B connector at one end – the square connector used by printers, scanners and many audio interfaces. Before ordering, check that your equipment uses this connector rather than Micro-USB, USB-C or the smaller USB 3.0 Type-B variant. USB 3.0 performance also requires USB 3.0 ports on both the computer and connected device; otherwise the connection falls back to USB 2.0 speed.

PC & HiFi Örebro recommends
The Kramer C-USB3/AB is a good choice for connecting a modern printer, scanner or USB audio interface when fast, stable transfers are important. Its substantial shielding is especially useful in environments with a large amount of electronic equipment, such as an AV rack or beneath an office desk. The USB 2.0 Kramer C-USB/AB is sufficient for a simple printer or keyboard and is available in more lengths at a lower price.
