Using it to connect Akai Professional MPK261 to Dell Laptop. Works perfectly. **Q: ps3** A: I bought this cable to connect a Casio WK-3800 to a computer. I inspected the receptacles on the rear of the instrument to determine the type of USB connection required. While I did not get this cable specifically for the Yamaha Tyros 4 (that I also own), I note that it would work to connect that device to a computer. The appropriate receptacle on the back of the Tyros 4 is labeled "to host." There is a second "A" type receptacle next to the "B" type that is labeled "to device" so that it appears that (at least on a Tyros 4) it is possible to daisy chain multiple USB devices. (That doesn't say if there are drivers available to support any/all such devices.) Since Yamaha is the manufacturer of the PS3, it is likely that it has a similar port arrangement -- however, you should inspect the back of your PS3 and see what ports are present, since specific features depend on exact models and date of production. (Specs can change over time.)As others have noted, this cable is most commonly used to connect to a printer. Most other USB devices use an "A" to "A" cable if needed. An additional consideration is to always use the shortest possible cable for any application, as signals tend to degrade over distance ... this is especially important with daisy-chained devices, since there is a maximum allowed combined cable length (the specification mentions a length that I can't recall, but in practice the quality of the cables will affect the actual signal strength, allowing longer or shorter cable runs as the case may be.) **Q: Is this good for arduino uno r3?** A: Don't know. "aruino uno r3"?? ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Quality and Great Value! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ *by L***. on 28 February 2024* I recently purchased the “Amazon Basics USB-A to USB-B 2.0 Cable” for my printer, and I'm extremely satisfied.

Thank you again. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Functional Workhorse with Room for Improvement *by R***D on 16 March 2024* Amazon Basics USB-A to USB-B Cable: A Functional Workhorse with Room for Improvement In the world of computer peripherals, a reliable USB cable is an essential component. Amazon Basics' USB-A to USB-B 2.0 Cable offers a straightforward solution for connecting devices like external hard drives, printers, and cameras to your computer. At 4.8 meters (16 feet) in length, this cable provides ample reach for most setups. One of the strengths of this product lies in its construction quality. The cable features corrosion-resistant, gold-plated connectors, which should theoretically ensure optimal signal transfer and longevity. Additionally, the multi-shielded design helps mitigate interference, potentially improving the stability of data transmission. For those concerned about durability, the Amazon Basics brand and its one-year warranty offer some peace of mind. While the warranty duration may not be exceptional, it's a reassuring gesture from a reputable brand. However, there are a few potential drawbacks to consider. Firstly, the USB 2.0 specification, while still widely used, may not provide the fastest data transfer speeds for modern, high-performance devices. With the prevalence of USB 3.0 and even USB-C connections, this cable may become outdated sooner rather than later. Additionally, while the cable length is generous, some users may find it excessive, leading to potential cable management issues or increased susceptibility to electromagnetic interference over longer distances. Another aspect worth mentioning is the lack of specific information about the cable's shielding and overall build quality. While the product description mentions "multi-shielded" construction, the specific materials and shielding techniques used are not detailed. Overall, the Amazon Basics USB-A to USB-B 2.0 Cable is a solid choice for those seeking a reliable, no-frills connection for their peripheral devices. Its reasonable price point and the backing of the Amazon Basics brand make it a practical option. However, for users seeking future-proof performance or requiring specialized cable configurations, exploring alternatives might be necessary. ## Frequently Bought Together - Amazon Basics USB-A to USB-B 2.0 Cable for Printer or External Hard Drive, Gold-Plated Connectors, 16 Foot, Black - USB 3.0 Hub, VIENON 4-Port USB Hub USB Splitter USB Expander for Laptop, Xbox, Flash Drive, HDD, Console, Printer, Camera,Keyborad, Mouse(Not for Charging) - ITD ITANDA 10FT USB Extension Cable USB 3.0 Extension Cord Type A Male to Female5Gbps Data Transfer for Keyboard, Mouse, Playstation, Xbox, Flash Drive, Printer, Camera and More --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/48680463-amazon-basics-usb-a-to-usb-b-2-0-cable](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/48680463-amazon-basics-usb-a-to-usb-b-2-0-cable) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
