USB connectors and receptacles
USB connectors and receptacles are grouped into two types: Type-A and Type-B.
USB cable length
For each passive connection between a two USB devices, the maximum length for USB 3.0 is 3
meters, and the maximum length for USB 2.0 is 5 meters. To extend USB connection beyond
this length limit, an active extension cable has to be used to ensure stable signal transmission
and reliable power supply.
Te r m Description/explanation
Upstream The direction of data transmission from a USB function to a host or hub.
Downstream The direction of data transmission from a USB host or hub to a function.
Hub A USB device that provides upstream connection (port) to a host and
downstream connections (ports) to multiple functions.
Root hub A USB host that also performs the functions of a hub.
Speed (low-speed,
full-speed and high-
speed)
Three different speeds are currently defined in the USB 2.0 specification:
• Low-speed: data transmission at 1.5Mbps
• Full-speed: data transmission at 12Mbps
• High-speed: data transmission at 480Mbps
The actual transmission speed is determined by the device with the
lower (or lowest) speed. For example, if a low-speed (1.5Mbps) USB
peripheral is connected to a high-speed (480Mbps) USB host, the
maximum transmission speed between these devices will be 1.5Mbps,
not 480Mbps.
Active (self-
powered) device
A USB device that has it own power supply and can operate without the
power supplied by the USB host.
Passive (bus-
powered) device
A USB device that does not have its own power supply and solely relies
on the power supplied by the USB host.
Ty p e - A
• Type-A receptacles are used as outputs from host systems
and hubs.
• Type-A plugs are always oriented towards the host system
and mate with Type-A receptacles.
