The kenable USB 2.0 Extension Cable (1m) is for users needing to extend the reach of their USB 2.0 devices. Its key benefit is providing a high-speed 480Mbps connection that supports plug-and-play and hot-swapping. A key consideration is that USB cable length limitations may affect peripheral functionality, so it's advised to check your device's documentation.

This USB 2.0 extension cable supports speeds of up to 480Mbps.
While it will physically connect, the cable will only operate at USB 2.0 speeds (480Mbps), not the faster speeds of USB 3.0 or higher.
The maximum recommended total length for a USB cable chain is generally 5 meters. Exceeding this may lead to performance issues.
No, this cable supports plug-and-play and hot-swapping, so no drivers are required.
You can, but be aware that each extension adds to the total cable length. Keeping the total length under 5 meters is advised to maintain stable performance.
This cable facilitates data transfer and basic USB power delivery as per the USB 2.0 standard. However, it does not boost power delivery. High-power devices may require a powered USB hub or a direct connection.
Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged in. Try connecting the device directly to the computer to rule out a device issue. If it works directly, try a different USB 2.0 port or ensure the total cable length does not exceed 5 meters.
Verify that both the device and the computer's USB port support USB 2.0 speeds (480Mbps). Ensure no other high-bandwidth USB devices are heavily utilizing the USB bus. Check the total length of all connected USB cables; keep it under 5 meters for optimal performance.
Check for damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the connection is secure. Excessive cable length can cause intermittent issues; try reducing the total length if possible.
Setup: Simply plug the Type-A end of the kenable USB 2.0 Extension Cable into an available USB port on your computer or USB hub, and then connect your USB 2.0 device to the Type-A female end of the extension cable. No drivers or software installation are required.
Compatibility: This cable is compatible with all USB 2.0 devices and any operating system that supports USB 2.0, including Windows, macOS, and Linux. It can also be used with USB 1.1 devices, though speeds will be limited to USB 1.1 standards.
Care: Store the cable in a dry place, away from extreme temperatures. Avoid sharp bends or kinks, and do not pull the cable by the connector. Regularly check the connectors for dust or debris and clean gently with a dry cloth if necessary.
