2NOT a Good Product - Much Better Options Out There
By Mark S Mrowka
I bought these just over a month ago, and I haven't been happy with them.

BUYER BEWARE:
They don't fit like they should. Something like 3 out of 5 are not a fit with this plug. They get stuck with a part remaining, so they can't be used.

Just last week I bought a different 1 foot extension cable to replace these, and those work GREAT!

This is the product:
B00CG70K78

These are not getting stuck at all and they seem a lot more high quality. I guess that's the difference between buying a Generic and a Branded product.

Yeah sure these are a bit more expensive, but at least THEY WORK!!

1Item does not match the description!
By William L. Crow
5-Pack 1ft POWER STRIP OUTLET EXTENDER / OUTLET SAVER / POWER EXTENSION CABLE
These are not what the description states. They are 1foot standard power cords not extenstions. You can only connect from power strip directly to equipment with standard male plug. You cannot use them to plug in wall warts power packs or anything with a standard 3 prong AC plug. I should have look at all the other reviews before purchase.

1Didn't appear to be same as picture
By Jeffrey P. Kalasinski
I ordered these to help with adapters that plug into a power strip. But what came was a something that looked like it plugs into the back of a desktop computer to provide power. I could not plug an adapter into it. Amazon gave me a full refund.

5Works on USB 2.0 and USB 3.0
By Sam
This is a well made, sturdy, albeit somewhat thick cable.

I bought it so that I could extend both USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 cables. I.E., you can plug this cable into a USB 2.0 port on a computer and attach a USB 2.0 device or cable to the other end and it will work fine.

To be clear: you can attach a USB 2.0 phone cable to this extension cord, plug it into a USB 2.0 port on your PC and you will be able to both charge your phone and transfer data to and from it (at USB 2.0 speeds).

You can, of course, also plug this cable into a USB 3.0 port on a computer and plug a USB 3.0 device or cable into the other end and it will work fine.

Posting this info since some other reviewers were questioning this. The USB 3.0 standard is designed to be backwards compatible with USB 2.0 (and even USB 1.1).

The USB 3.0 connector is designed so that the extra pins needed for USB 3.0 are recessed, and they won't be used if the cable is plugged into a USB 2.0 port.

USB 3.0 is a superset of USB 2.0, so why not purchase an extension cable that will serve both types of devices and ports?

5Great Product, Very Happy with Purchase
By Amazon Shopping Addict
I purchased this for an external USB 3 JBOD enclosure I will need for my PC.

At the moment, I haven't received the JBOD enclosure, but I tested this cable with an Intel X25-V 40GB SSD in a MSI Coolmax HD-250TN-U3 USB 3 enclosure using a PCIe x1 Renesas 2-Port (EVGA EU30) card and saw HD Tune 2.55 return the following stats for a 4MB Block Size:
Transfer Rate:
Min: 134.6 MB/sec
Max: 149.2 MB/sec
Average 144.5 MB/sec
Access Time: 0.1 ms
Burst Rate: 73.6 MB/sec

This was with the SSD having 12.2 GB free of 37.2 GB.

When the SSD/enclosure was attached directly to the EU30 without using the extension cable, I saw the following results:
Transfer Rate:
Min: 138.0 MB/sec
Max: 149.4 MB/sec
Average 144.2 MB/sec
Access Time: 0.1 ms
Burst Rate: 74.5 MB/sec

My conclusion: No real speed loss when using the extension cable.

Other observations: The cable is nice and thick; the male/female ends feel strong and unlikely to break even with thousands of insertions/removal

UPDATE: When I used the extension cable with the NST-640SU3-BK enclosure, the disks would appear and disappear in Windows. Removing the cable fixed the issue.

5Important info for you on this
By Chriseveringham
This is a topnotch cable. Very good quality. Be aware, while usb 3.0 devices are usually backwards compatible you are not going to be able to buy this cord and connect it to a USB 2.0 port and have it work. I have had experience first hand with this happening to people and want to get this message out to who ever I can and maybe save someone the cost. But other then that one foot note, this item is excellent and the seller was right on the ball and got it out asap. If you need one I would go for it. I will come back to this seller in the future when I need these. Enjoy and God Bless.
