Amazon Basics 2.0 USB-A Male to Mini USB Cable, 1.8 m / 6 Feet, Black

Product Information

Ethernet standards require electrical isolation between the networked device (computer, phone, etc.) and the network cable up to 1500VAC or 2250VDC for 60seconds. [111] USB has no such requirement as it was designed for peripherals closely associated with a host computer, and in fact it connects the peripheral and host grounds. This gives Ethernet a significant safety advantage over USB with peripherals such as cable and DSL modems connected to external wiring that can assume hazardous voltages under certain fault conditions.

Just like USB-A, it’s the original designation for the two ends of a non-symmetrical cable. The differing form of USB-A and USB-B helps to enforce the mono-directional aspect of these iterations of USB. Data flow is bi-directional, but power may only flow from the host to the peripheral or receptor end and, therefore, the cable can only be connected in one way.

The Universal Serial Bus was developed to simplify and improve the interface between personal computers and peripheral devices, such as cell phones, computer accessories, and monitors, when compared with previously existing standard or ad hoc proprietary interfaces. [12] The main difference between versions is the shape, as the rounding has been altered due to the increase of the number of pins; allowing a faster data transfer.

Note that this describes the power distribution model of USB that existed before Power-Delivery (USB-PD). Before PD, USB provided up to 7.5W through Type-A and Type-B connectors, and up to 15W through USB-C. All pre-PD USB power is provided at 5V. A USB connection is always between an A end, either a host or a downstream port of a hub, and a B end, either a peripheral device or the upstream port of a hub. Historically this was made clear by the fact that hosts had only Type-A ports and peripheral devices had only Type-B, and every (valid) cable had one Type-A plug and one Type-B plug. USB-C (Type-C) is a single connector that replaces all Type-A and Type-B connectors ( legacy connectors), so when both sides are modern equipment with USB-C ports they negotiate which is the host (A) and which is the device (B). Contrary to other functions – which use the multiplexing of high-speed links – USB 2.0 over USB-C utilizes its own differential pair of wires.Key, Gary (15 November 2005).
