My bottleneck was a spinning HDD, so I can't attest to the speed, but it was as fast as I needed it to be. Length was accurate. Importantly, the cable is packaged in a smooth loop rather than being creased, resulting in a no-kink cable. I was happy to pay the price for a brand I know and trust for cables.

Soft. Durable. Flexible. Reliable. Packaged well. *by R***I on December 31, 2025* Reliable data transfer. I've transferred many terabytes with perfect verification and no interruptions.

Perfect! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with a MacBook Air and an external hard drive *by M***E on January 31, 2026* Good quality cable, used it to connect a 2025 MacBook Air to an OWC Mercury Elite Pro external hard drive for Time Machine backups, worked without issue. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not getting advertised USB 3.0 connection speeds *by C***S on May 4, 2018* UPDATE: 5 stars. Cable Matters contacted me and made things right. First, they shipped me a replacement cable free-of-charge. Unfortunately, that one did not show any improvement with my particular drive. When I let them know, they issued a full refund no questions asked. So while this product did not work as I required for my particular device, I could not have asked for any better customer service. So my experience suggests there's no risk in trying this product if it's what you're looking for. ORIGINAL 2-STAR REVIEW: I purchased this cable to connect my OWC Mercury Elite Pro USB 3 Enclosure to my 2017 iMac. Physically, the cable works fine -- on one end plugging into the Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C compatible) port on the back of my iMac, and the other end plugging into the USB Type B port on my external drive. I expected this arrangement to support USB 3 "up to 5 Gbps" connection which is advertised in the product description, in order to get maximum performance out of my external drive. However, when using this cable to connect my drive, the drive reports itself (via macOS System Report) as having a max speed of 480Mbps which is USB2 speed not USB3. To check the drive itself, I connected it with the standard USBA/B cable that came with the drive, and it reports itself as having max speed to 5 Gbps which is true USB 3. So I know the drive/enclosure itself supports the faster speed. I've included images of both macOS system reports. This cable will not work for me as I need maximum performance for my external drive. NOTE: I also know the problem isn't the Thunderbolt 3 connector on my computer. Using a USB C to Micro-B 3.0 cable on the same Thunderbolt 3 port on my Mac, I am getting full USB 3 speed on a separate external drive which uses the Micro-B connector. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cable Matters USB C to USB B 3.0 Cable - 3.3ft, USBB to USBC Cable with Type-B 3.0 Connector, Black - CableCreation USB B to USB C Printer Cable 6.6FT, Type B to Type C Printer Cord for MacBook Pro, Air, MIDI Cable for Yamaha Casio Digital Piano, MIDI Keyboard, DJ Controller, DAC to iPad - 2M, Black - Cable Matters Long USB B to USB C Cable - 9.8ft, USB-C to USB-B Cable, MIDI to USBC Cord, Compatible with Printer, MIDI Controller/Keyboard, Black --- ## 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.ae/products/24671384-cable-matters-usb-c-to-usb-b-3-0-cable](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/24671384-cable-matters-usb-c-to-usb-b-3-0-cable) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
