This is The Cable Company master listing of all USB cable types. These specially designed digital cables are used to connect your computer to your audio system. Like other digital audio cables, USB audio cables carry a bitstream of digital data. 

This cable type could also be considered a USB power cable as it is carrying electrical power from the computer as well as digital data. It is a two way connection because the devices being connected need to sync their "clocks."  These multifunctions make this a fairly complex cable design to do right, and the best USB cables can dramatically improve the quality of the sound at the audible end of the chain.

USB cables should generally be kept short in length: 3m/10ft maximum. For longer requirements other digital cable types can serve as USB extension cables. Contact us for information in this regard.

To help you choose the best USB cable for your specific application most of our products are available for in-home audition through our our Cable Library service.
