This USB 3.0 A male to printer cable from TLD Electronic, a China USB cable manufacturer and factory, is built for compatible devices requiring a standard Type-A to Type-B connection. The cable uses 32AWG data conductors, tinned copper conductors, 64-braid copper shielding with nickel or gold plated connectors. Its 6ft length and UL 94 V-0 PVC jacket provide a practical option for printers, scanners, external drives, DACs and 3D printers. OEM, wholesale and free samples are available.

The cable supports USB 3.0 throughput. A 4GB video render transfers from an external HDD to a workstation in about 8 seconds, compared with over a minute on USB 2.0.
In-house tests using Blackmagic Disk Speed Test showed read/write speeds above 420MB/s on compatible SSDs.
The cable uses 100% aluminium foil plus 64-braid copper mesh. This reduces EMI/RFI compared with single-shielded cables. It supports stable data transfer near power supplies, Wi-Fi routers and motorized equipment. This is relevant for medical imaging, archival digitization and audio production where data errors are costly.
The USB Type-B connector has a square design that resists damage from repeated insertions. The overmoulded strain relief is tested to 5,000+ bend cycles at 90°. The nickel-plated shell resists oxidation and maintains contact in humid environments tested up to 90% RH.
The cable works with:
Printers: HP LaserJet Enterprise, Canon imageRUNNER, Epson WorkForce, Brother MFC
Scanners: Fujitsu fi-series, Epson Perfection, Plustek optic film scanners
External storage: WD My Book, Seagate Backup Plus, LaCie d2, OWC Mercury
Audio interfaces: Focusrite Scarlett, PreSonus StudioLive, Behringer U-Phoria
3D printers: Ultimaker, Prusa, Creality with USB-B ports
Test and measurement: oscilloscopes, data loggers, spectrum analyzers
Backward compatible with USB 2.0/1.1 devices at 480Mbps.
The 6ft (1.8m) length connects a tower PC under a desk to a scanner on top, or a laptop on a docking station to a nearby external drive. Impedance is tuned to 90Ω ± 5Ω to match USB 3.0 spec.




Corporate Print Rooms
Connect high-volume laser printers to networked print servers. Error-free data flow reduces reprints.
Photo and Design Studios
Tether scanners to iMacs for high-resolution film scanning. 5Gbps throughput handles 48-bit colour depths.
Data Backup Stations
Link external HDD arrays to NAS systems for scheduled backups.
Audio Production
Connect USB-B equipped DACs and audio interfaces to laptops. Shielding reduces ground-loop hum and digital clicks.
Education Labs
Use with oscilloscopes and data acquisition modules in engineering labs.
Medical Clinics
Connect diagnostic ultrasound or retinal scanners to reporting PCs. RoHS/REACH materials meet healthcare safety standards.

“We use these 6ft cables in our audio recording booths, connecting Focusrite interfaces to Mac Pros. The shielding is noticeably better — we don’t get that high-frequency whine anymore.”
A: For a 600-dpi A4 colour scan (roughly 150MB), USB 2.0 takes about 2.5 seconds to transfer the file after scanning completes. USB 3.0 does it in under 0.3 seconds. Over a day of scanning hundreds of documents, this adds up. USB 3.0 bandwidth also prevents the scanner buffer from filling up, which can cause pauses or errors on some models.
A: Yes. A USB-A to USB-C adapter or hub can be used. The cable is standard USB 3.0, and the adapter does not affect speed if it is USB 3.0 rated. For native USB-C to USB-B connections, TLD also offers a USB-C to USB-B variant.
A: Yes. TLD can print your company logo on the connector shells via laser engraving, add custom coloured sleeves and design retail packaging. Minimum order quantities for full custom moulds are typically 5,000 units. Lower MOQs are available for label-based customization.
A: Yes. Free samples are available to qualified businesses. You only pay for shipping.
A: TLD offers a 24-month replacement warranty against manufacturing defects. If an issue occurs, replacements are shipped promptly.
A: Contact the sales team via the form or email. A detailed price list and quotation will be provided based on order quantity, packaging preferences and delivery destination. Response is typically within 24 hours.
