Vention USB 2.0 A Male to B Male Printer Cable with 2 Ferrite Cores 5M Black (VAS-A16-B500) – Reliable Printing Across a Busy Shop or Office
The Vention USB 2.0 A Male to B Male Printer Cable 5M Black (VAS-A16-B500) is a 5-meter USB-A to USB-B cable that connects a computer or POS terminal to a printer, scanner, receipt printer, label printer or 3D printer placed well away from the desk. Because shop counters and offices are full of electrical noise from fridges, UPS units, routers and fluorescent lights, the cable carries two ferrite cores that reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI), which helps prevent failed or half-printed jobs over the long run. In addition, it transfers data at up to 480Mbps (USB 2.0) and works with USB 1.1 and 1.0 devices. As a result, a supermarket in Kitengela or a pharmacy in Kisumu can place the receipt printer at the till while the PC sits safely under the counter. Meanwhile, gold-plated connectors resist corrosion, and the PVC jacket handles daily handling at 0°C to 60°C.
Key Features
In short, this cable stands out in five areas:
- 2 ferrite cores – reduce EMI from nearby electrical equipment for steadier printing
- 5m length – reaches printers across a room, counter or office
- USB 2.0 at up to 480Mbps – backward compatible with USB 1.1 and 1.0
- USB-A to USB-B connectors – fits printers, scanners, POS and 3D printers
- Gold-plated connectors with PVC jacket – corrosion-resistant and durable
