Cable for extending a USB connection: type A male at one end, type A female at the other. The usual case is the port that sits behind the computer or inside a cabinet and that you have to crouch down to reach every time.
It is a USB 2.0 cable, with a signalling speed of up to 480 Mbps, fine for keyboards, mice, printers, memory sticks, webcams and chargers. Copper conductor and round PVC jacket in black.
One detail worth keeping in mind: the USB 2.0 standard accepts a cable run of up to 5 metres. If adding the original cable and the extension goes beyond that, or if you simply need 10 metres, the sensible thing is an active extension cable with a repeater, which regenerates the signal along the way.
