Product Description
A 3-metre USB 2.0 extension lead that lets you move a USB device 3 metres further from its host without swapping cables. It uses a USB A male plug on one end and a USB A female socket on the other, so it simply plugs in-line with your existing USB A cable — no adapters needed.
Why CCTV buyers reach for this one: many USB-powered cameras, card readers, or USB dongles on a DVR/NVR setup end up just out of reach of the recorder or PC. This cable adds 3 metres of run length while keeping the same USB A connection, so data transfer and power delivery stay on the one lead.
What it's good for
- Extending USB-connected CCTV accessories or peripherals where the built-in cable is too short
- Repositioning USB devices without re-routing the whole cable run
- General USB 2.0 extension for computers, hubs, and USB-powered kit
Before you buy
- Confirm USB A male-to-female is the connector type your device actually needs — this cable won't convert to USB-C or micro-USB.
- If your existing run is already long, remember cable length adds up — check your device's total supported USB run before daisy-chaining extensions.
It's built for USB 2.0 high-speed data and power, so it suits standard USB peripherals rather than anything needing USB 3.x speeds.

Frequently Asked Questions
What connectors does this cable use?
A USB A male plug on one end and a USB A female socket on the other, so it extends an existing USB A cable in-line.
How much extra length does it add?
It adds 3 metres to your existing USB connection.
Is this cable suitable for CCTV setups?
Yes — it's commonly used to extend USB-powered CCTV accessories or peripherals where the original cable is too short.
Will this work with USB-C devices?
No, it's a USB A male-to-female cable, so it won't directly connect to USB-C ports without a separate adapter.
