About this product
Overview
A printer cable is the sort of thing you only think about when it fails. This one is built so it does not: a nylon braided USB 2.0 Type-A to Type-B cord with reinforced joints rated for more than 20,000 bends and a ferrite core to keep the signal clean.
The ferrite bead is the part that matters for reliability. By suppressing high-frequency noise it minimises signal loss, which means error-free transfer at up to 480 Mbps — crisp prints, complete scans and stable serial connections while programming an Arduino.
At 4.6 ft (140 cm) it reaches comfortably across a desk or home office without leaving a heap of slack, making it a good replacement for the short cable that came in the printer box.
Key Features
- Universal Type-B connectivity — Works with HP, Canon, Epson, Brother, Lexmark, Dell and Xerox printers, scanners and fax machines, and with Arduino UNO R3, Mega 2560 and similar boards
- Ferrite core — Anti-interference magnetic ring minimises signal loss and noise for stable, error-free transfer
- Built to last — Tangle-free nylon braid and reinforced connectors tested past 20,000 bends, well beyond ordinary PVC cables
- Practical 4.6 ft reach — 140 cm, long enough for a desk setup without clutter
- Instant connection — No driver installation; plug Type-A into the computer and Type-B into the device
- High speed — USB 2.0 at up to 480 Mbps, backward compatible with USB 1.1 and 1.0

Where you'll put it to work.
Data-capable cables that upload sketches reliably — many "charging only" cables can't.
Uploading code
Flash sketches and firmware from the Arduino IDE, PlatformIO or MakeCode.
Serial debugging
Watch the serial monitor and plotter while your project runs.
Powering boards
Run your board straight from a computer or USB power adapter.
Lab & classroom spares
Extra cables mean fewer "is it the cable?" moments in a room full of learners.
