The square USB Type-B connector is used on most printers, scanners, external drives and audio interfaces. It is larger than Mini-B and Micro-B, easier to grip, and built for repeated plugging. This cable connects directly to Type-B ports without adapters.
USB 2.0 High-Speed 480Mbps handles common office and studio tasks:
Printing: 100MB design file to laser printer in under 2 seconds
Scanning: 600dpi A4 color scan (approx. 150MB) in under 3 seconds
External storage: 1GB document folder in under 25 seconds
Audio: 8 channels of 24-bit/96kHz audio without dropouts
For higher-speed external SSD video editing, see our USB 3.0 A-to-B cable.
Many printers, scanners and portable drives draw power from the USB bus. This cable uses 28AWG tinned copper VBUS and ground conductors to reduce voltage drop. Tested with:
WD Elements portable drive: spins up without external power
Portable DVD writer: reads and writes at full speed
USB-powered scanner: maintains consistent scan speed
Behringer XR series digital mixer: powers up and communicates
The Type-B connector has thicker walls and larger contact surfaces than smaller USB connectors. Added durability:
Overmoulded strain relief extends 25mm from connector body
Nickel-plated brass shell
Gold-flashed contacts
5,000+ insertion/withdrawal cycles by mechanical testing
Printers and scanners often sit near power strips, Wi-Fi routers and other EMI sources. Aluminium foil + 48-braid tinned copper mesh shielding reduces:
Corrupted print jobs
Scanner image artifacts
Drive disconnections during long transfers
Audio glitches in recording sessions
Connects a computer Type-A port to any device with a Type-B port:
Printers: HP LaserJet/OfficeJet/DeskJet, Canon imageRUNNER/PIXMA, Epson EcoTank/WorkForce, Brother MFC/HL, Xerox Phaser, Lexmark
Scanners: Fujitsu fi-series, Epson Perfection/Expression, Plustek OpticFilm, Brother ADS
External Storage: WD My Book/Elements, Seagate Backup Plus/Expansion, LaCie d2/Rugged, Toshiba Canvio
Audio: Focusrite Scarlett, RME Babyface, PreSonus StudioLive, Behringer U-Phoria, Universal Audio Apollo
Creative & Industrial: MIDI keyboards, CNC plotters, 3D printers, digital mixing consoles
Lab & Medical: Spectrophotometers, ECG monitors, blood analysers, data loggers
POS & Retail: Thermal receipt printers, barcode scanners, cash drawers
Works with USB 3.0 ports at USB 2.0 speed, and with USB 1.1 ports. Suitable for mixed-generation equipment environments.
Office Print Rooms Connect high-volume laser printers to workstations or print servers. Stable connection reduces reprints caused by communication errors.
Design & Creative Studios Link large-format scanners and plotters for architectural or graphic design workflows.
Data Backup Stations Connect external hard drives to desktop PCs for routine backups.
Audio Recording Studios Interface audio interfaces with computers. Stable power and data transfer for recording sessions.
Education & Training Labs Connect lab instruments, 3D printers and scanners to shared workstations. Durable connectors handle student use.
Medical Clinics Interface diagnostic equipment with reporting PCs for patient records.
Retail & Hospitality Connect POS receipt printers and barcode scanners. Easy to replace.
Home Office Connect printer, scanner and external drive with one cable type.
USB 2.0 is a mature standard. Stable performance across daily prints and scans depends on cable construction:
D+/D- Differential Pair Twisting Tight twist pitch (6–8 twists per inch) reduces crosstalk and maintains signal integrity at 480Mbps.
Shielding Continuity Foil + braid shielding is soldered directly to connector shells at both ends, not just crimped. This provides a low-impedance ground path and drains EMI to ground.
28 AWG Power Conductors 28AWG tinned copper VBUS and ground conductors provide approx. 0.06Ω per foot. Voltage drop stays under 0.2V at 2.4A.
USB-IF Compliance Meets USB Implementers Forum electrical and mechanical requirements for interoperability with certified devices.
100% Automated Testing Every cable undergoes:
Continuity (all 4 pins)
Short-circuit isolation
Hi-Pot insulation (300V DC, >10MΩ)
Resistance (VBUS and ground)
Functional handshake with USB host
Real-device validation (printer and external drive test)
TLD operates under ISO-9001:2015 certified quality management.
