Comparison Products USB Extension Cable USB Extension with Switch Angle USB Extension Cable Active USB 2.0 Extension USB 4 Extension Cable DisplayPort Extension HDMI Extension Review: Nice USB extension cable! Not too bad of a price. - A reasonably priced 6ft USB extension cable. I needed this to make the last turn in my hidden wiring for my desk and reach the power brick for a phone charger. Works perfectly! I'm not sure if there is anything special about this vs other USB 3.0 extension cables, but it seems reasonably well built. The cord isn't too stiff but also doesn't feel thin or cheap. It was right on the money for length for what I needed. Review: Replacement cable work great! - UPDATE 2025-07-14: Received and tested the replacement cable—the video glitches are gone with my Streamcam, and I tested a couple of other things that would be susceptible to voltage drops (like a Raspberry Pi) or signal integrity issues (wireless mic) and found that all three of them worked as expected. I said I expected better of Cable Matters in my review of the defective cable because _this_ is the quality I expect from this brand. But every manufacturer has factory defects now and then. Because these cables are sold through desertcart, though, replacement was fast and easy! ORIGINAL REVIEW: I connected my Logi Streamcam to this device under Linux. The Streamcam comes with a USB-C native cable, however it's just too short to run through my monitor arm's cable management then to my PC. The signal from the camera is flickery and glitchy, with many errors and device resets. One of three things is happening here: 1. The cable is defective. This is always a possibility. 2. The USB signal integrity is weak. That's atypical for Cable Matters. 3. The copper for the 5v lines in the cable has too much resistance, meaning the camera isn't getting 5v. The latter two are usually unlikely the problem with Cable Matters cables. Their cables are usually pretty stiff compared to the similar low-priced competition and this one is no exception. The reason for this is that you can pick any two: Low price, good electrical performance, and flexible. And on that last point there's only so much you can do, especially for an extension cable. I'm going to exchange this cable. I won't remove this review (that ain't right), but I will update it with the replacement cable's performance when it arrives in a couple of days. _NEVER_ judge a company by a defective product, give them a chance to make it right. CM's got good stuff generally. So this might just be a factory defect, those happen. ## Features - High-Performance USB 3 Extension Cable: Extend the connection between your computer or Windows tablet and USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 peripherals, including VR headsets, hard drives, USB hubs, mice, keyboards, flash drives, printers, and more. - Upgrade to SuperSpeed USB 3.0: Future-proof your data transfer speeds with SuperSpeed USB 3.0 extension cable, while maintaining backwards compatibility with your existing USB 2.0 devices using this USB extension cord. - SuperSpeed Data Transfer Rate: Enjoy data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps, 10x faster than USB 2.0, with this USB male to female extension cable.

Cable Matters sent me replacements, and I was able to get a response from the device manufacturer, AverMedia. Even though USB 3.0 has no length specification, per the manufacturer their device will not function with total cable lengths exceeding 2 meters (this specification is not listed anywhere on their site, the device's packaging, documentation etc). Therefore, using a 6 foot extension cable would not work. Once I knew this, I diagnosed both the original extension cables as well as the replacements with a USB 3.0 flash drive and confirmed that the transfer speeds are good. I have to commend Cable Matters for their support (wish I knew a way to contact them first rather than having them read my review!) and for their product quality. That said, the text below of my original review is still (technically) accurate. The problem isn't these cables--it's the AverMedia hardware device--but it's also true that these cables won't work for the function outlined, so I'll leave it below for reference only. If you need longer than the included 3.5 foot USB 3.0 A to Micro B cable, the highest you can go is 6 feet (I found out firsthand that the 9 foot won't work). Original review text: I bought these cables for one purpose: so I could get some extra cable length between my Avermedia CV710 Extremecap U3 capture device and my PC. Unfortunately, they don't work as advertised. See, the CV710 is picky about which USB 3.0 chipsets it supports because it needs to transfer data at a certain speed in order to capture 1080p video at 60 frames per second. So it comes with a USB 3.0 Diagnosis Tool software. Plug your device in, run the diagnostic, it tells you which resolutions you can capture at with your connection. If I plug my device directly into my USB 3.0 port using the Avermedia-provided USB cable (which is pretty short; only about 3.5 feet), then all diagnostics pass and I can capture at full 1080p60 at maximum bitrate. If I use the exact same port, the exact same capture device, and run the exact same diagnostic test only this time with one of these extension cables? All diagnostics fail. And yeah, the PC does still detect the device. I thought maybe I might have gotten a defective cable. But this was a 2-pack. It's unlikely that I got TWO bad cables. I suppose if you just wanted extensions for USB 2.0 devices that these cables would work fine, or if you had a USB 3.0 device like a storage device or something where the slightly lower transfer rate would at least still eventually let you finish. But if you plan on using this to capture game footage for Youtube or livestreaming like I was, then this isn't the product for you. I guess I'll have to spend extra to buy one longer USB 3.0 A Male to Micro B instead of this. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cable Matters 5Gbps USB Extension Cable - 3ft, USB 3.0 Extension Cable, Male to Female USB3.0 Extender, Compatible with Webcam, VR Headset, Printer, Hard Drive, Black - Cable Matters 20Gbps USB 4 Extension Cable 3.3ft, Supports Up to [8K@30Hz / 4K@120Hz Video, 240W Charging, 20Gbps Data Transfer] USB C Extension Cable/USB C Extender/Type C Extension Cable --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/10495803-5gbps-usb-extension-cable-3ft-usb-3-0-extension-cable](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/10495803-5gbps-usb-extension-cable-3ft-usb-3-0-extension-cable) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
