About this product
Overview
Every Arduino UNO, Mega 2560 and Uno-format clone needs the same cable — USB 2.0 Type-A male to Type-B male — and it is invariably the thing that goes missing first. This 2-pack of 3 ft (100 cm) cables means there is always a spare on the bench.
These are high-speed USB 2.0 certified cables, fully backward compatible with USB 1.1 and 1.0. Foil and braid shielding reduces EMI and RFI interference, which is what keeps sketch uploads and serial monitoring error-free rather than intermittently frustrating.
The same connector is used by most printers and scanners, so these double as replacement printer cables whenever you need one.
Key Features
- Made for Arduino — Connects UNO R3, Mega 2560 and other Type-B boards for programming and serial communication
- Shielded construction — Foil and braid shielding cuts EMI and RFI interference for error-free transfer
- High-speed USB 2.0 — Certified, and backward compatible with USB 1.1 and 1.0
- Doubles as a printer cable — Works with printers, scanners, external drives and other Type-B devices
- Practical 3 ft length — Enough reach for a desk setup without excess cable to manage
- Plug and play — No drivers, no configuration
