The black 16′ Pearstone USB 3.0 Extension Cable with Booster features active electronics that boost the USB signal to prevent data loss, allowing you to connect your USB-enabled devices over 60′ away (using multiple booster cables, sold separately) and still take advantage of the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed maximum transfer rate of 5Gbps. Without a booster, the USB signal begins to degrade after 15′. If you’re using a USB device that requires full USB power in order to function, make sure to plug the device into a powered USB hub before plugging it into the extension cable.

Made it easy to plug memory card into back of computer without going around to the back. Not a life-changing product, but worth the money, for sure.

I bought this Pearstone USB 3.0 Type A Male to Type A Female Extension Cable – 15′ version to extend the USB 3.0 cable that comes with my Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, for the purpose of tethering. It’s GREAT. The Canon EOS 5D Mark IV comes with a USB 3.0 designed and the port is designed with a . If you’ve ever used Tethertools 15′ cables for tethering and a Jerkstopper, then you’re gonna love this: The Canon IFC-150U II USB 3.0 Interface Cable for DSLRs that comes with the Canon 5D Mark IV has a cable protector contraption that literally screws into the side of the body by design, and works like the Jerkstopper ought to work like. They do sell a long version of this cord, but it’s not what comes in box with the body. This is an affordable alternative to still make use of that cable for this matter. I decided to do this to avoid buying extra cables and plus, if I’m not using this for tethering, it can be used for other applications as I need. The quality of the cable is trustworthy and the connection seems perfect. It tethers as it should, with speed. I hope this helps! =

Always useful to have a extension USB cable, great quality

cable works great! If you are worried about losing speed/efficacy through an extension, don’t. It works just fine.

I purchased this 6′ Pearstone USB 3 Extension Cable to extend the reach from my computer to a Lenovo 3.0 Secure Hard Drive, which was functioning fine with a 3′ extension cable. The Pearstone is advertised to handle both charging and data transfer. It did light up the secure hard drive; however, when the code was entered on the hard drive to initiate a hand shake, the drive consistently went dark and ceased communicating with the Pearstone. It may be that his hard drive is too demanding to work with any cable over 3′ without active assistance – although 6′ is still pretty short. But, this Pearstone cable did not do the job.

Purchased to connect wall charger to USB input of a dual battery charger, so charger with batteries wouldn’t be dangling from wall. Works well for this purpose. Didn’t evaluate for quality of signal transfer. Very reasonable quality for its low price.

I use my PC as a combined gaming rig, workstation, and home entertainment center, so I need long cords to allow my tower to plug into everything that I want it to plug into. Cables like these are a godsend! I also use these with my laptop and headphones (with a 3.5mm to USB adapter) while doing chores and other busywork.

Ad described. Cable is not a lightweight. It has a good thick feel that permeates durability!

Seems like a solidly built cable. No issues here.

The Pearstone USB extension cables are well made. The 15′ one is handy when one needs a longer length than the ones that typically come with an external hard drive or printer.

I only have two USB 3.0 terminals on my desktop and they are both on the rear, very difficult to reach. This was a solution and doesn’t slow down the SanDick Extreme 3.0 flash disk.

This is a very study cable. It is heftier than I expected. I don’t plug and re-plug, so this cable will stay as set up. I expect it to last.

Works well. It looks as shown in the picture.

The original 6 foot cable didn’t work. Called customer service and they OKd a replacement at no charge. I asked that a 3 foot cable be sent instead of the 6 foot one. They OKd that too. The 3 footer works perfectly. Thank you B+H.
