By Theodore Snalilial


USB or universal serial bus is the term used to refer to the cables, connectors and communications protocols utilized in a bus for connection, communication and power supply between computers and electronic devices. This cable was created and established in the year 1990s and since then has proven itself to be very useful in more ways than one.

The universal bus is oftentimes utilized as a connecting cable for keyboards, mouse, digital cameras, portable media devices, drivers to laptops or computers to help in communication and supplication of electrical energy.

Ever since its creation, the USB has already transformed to many types but the latest and most high-tech innovation of the USB is USB 30. USB 3.0 cable or connector or whatever kind it is, is referred to as the Super Speed USB since it runs at a speed to 5Gbps or 625MB/sec which is an improvement of USB 2.0's 450 Mbps speed. Other than the high speed, USB 3.0 cable also permits 80% higher power use for electronic devices and gadgets. Moreover, you can also use the upgrade of the USB-B connector named Powered-B which enables USB accessories to get electricity from other gadgets from about 100milliamps to 900 milliamps.

This attribute has been possible with the desertion of device polling and the use of a new interrupt-driven protocol that allows for idle devices to conserve their power as the host controller looks for active data traffic. As replacement, the gadgets will just send a signal to the host when the data transfer will already start. This attribute also allows for the compatibility with USB 2.0 authorized gadgets. Also, the SuperSpeed USB has a popular process of host-to-host communication through a crossover USB A to USB A cable. Yet another plus of the USB 3.0 cable is that it is very on-the-go which means that it can helps portable devices to act as USB devices or hosts to increase the feature set and usability with other USB devices. USB 3.0 cable can do this because it has two lanes in which one is meant for transmission of data and the other for receiving data.

All of the above are only a taste of the amazing attributes of the USB 3.0 cables and connectors that you can enjoy. Other than that, your personal computer, laptop or gadget can also make use of a USB 3.0 extension cable.
