Declassifying USB Extension Cables

1. For all tech savvies, USB extension cables do not need an introduction. It is an accessory that is used as a part of our daily lives and we know all that it can be used for. But there is more to a USB extension cable than just transferring and charging. In this blog, we will talk about various aspects on the basis of which USB extension cables can be classified. Length You will be thanking me for including this in the list because most often when we see a packed USB extension cable, we don’t really get an idea about the length of the cable and without looking into that, we just purchase the cable. Length is a very crucial especially because we might want to continue working on our phone while it is charging or while data is being transferred. The standard length for USB cable extensions is 1.5m, 3m, or 5m. But, USB extension cable manufacturers often offer customization services and therefore, it should not surprise you to find an extension cable of different length.

2. Material No one wants to own a cable that keeps cracking and breaking. There is a very little difference in the price and a huge difference in the quality. Most USB cables are made of PVC which is very durable and does not give way to cracks even if folded regularly. But, there are cheap version available in the market and you should be aware of that. Compatibility/Connector Type Most of the smartphone devices have a common plug port and therefore the standard USB cable pin fits in almost all the phones. But, yes there are devices like iPhone which will not fit in this category and you will need a different USB extension cable for such devices. You should check for this parameter if you have a unique phone. Version USB also comes with a version. There are many releases made frequently which updates on data and signaling rate. There are many available versions but the one that you will find commonly is 2.0. If you are looking for a USB cable extension manufacturer, then connect with them to understand which version is the future. Colours The last in the list is colours because of it does not really contribute much to the utility aspect of the USB cable. But, this has to be included in the list because some people really pay attention to every detail and they would like a USB cable matching with their phone or case colour. If you are one of those, then you will not be disappointed because there are many options here. The standard remains white, black, and grey. But, you can easily find the colourful variations in a nearby store. Having covered almost all the classification points, it would be interesting to note what you focus on. Is it the material, version, colour, length, connector type, or something that I missed. Make a wise choice and consider all aspects for a long-running USB.
