USB (Universal Serial Bus) is the new “plug & Play” interconnection standard used for both PC’s and Macs. USB Cables should comply with one of two specifications, USB 1.1 and USB 2.0. USB 2.0 provides a higher bandwidth (480 Mbits/second) and speed than USB 1.1 (12 Mbits/second). The plug shape and look are the same but the quality of the cable may be different. All of our USB cables are fully USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 compliant. There are four normal USB connector types most often used, the “A” type, the “B” type, the mini USB, and the mini USB “version 2” or USB2 connector. The smaller connectors, the mini and mini v2 are used on the newer Digital cameras, replacing the serial connectors used previously.
