The SA-USBAB20 is a professional-grade USB 2.0 cable designed for musicians, DJs, and audio professionals who need reliable digital connectivity between their USB devices and computers. This 20-foot cable provides the extended reach necessary for studio setups, live performance rigs, and mobile DJ configurations where standard short cables fall short.

Built for high-speed data transfer, this USB cable delivers consistent 480 Mbps transfer rates essential for audio interfaces, MIDI controllers, and digital mixing consoles. The USB Type A male connector works with any standard computer USB port, while the Type B male connector fits most professional audio equipment requiring USB connectivity.

The cable features dual shielding with both foil and braided construction to ensure stable data transmission in electrically noisy environments like live venues or studios with multiple electronic devices. Heavy-duty strain relief at both connectors prevents damage from repeated plugging and unplugging, while the flexible PVC jacket withstands the rigors of frequent transport and setup.

Perfect for connecting audio interfaces to laptops in home studios, linking DJ controllers to computers during mobile gigs, or establishing reliable communication between digital mixing boards and recording systems. The 20-foot length accommodates rack-mounted equipment, stage setups, and desktop configurations where standard 6-foot cables create limitations.

Simply connect the Type A end to your computer's USB port and the Type B end to your audio device. Everything needed is included in the package.

Backed by Seismic Audio's one-year warranty with fast shipping nationwide. Professional reliability at a practical price point.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What audio equipment does this USB cable work with?

This USB A-to-B cable connects most professional audio interfaces, DJ controllers, digital mixing boards, and MIDI controllers to computers. The Type B connector fits standard square USB ports found on devices from PreSonus, Focusrite, Pioneer, Native Instruments, and similar brands. Check your device specifications to confirm it uses a USB Type B port.

Is 20 feet long enough for live performance setups?

Yes, 20 feet provides sufficient length for most DJ booth configurations, small to medium stage setups, and studio rack installations. This length allows you to position your laptop or computer away from the mixing area while maintaining reliable USB connectivity. For larger stages exceeding 15-20 feet from front of house to stage, consider USB signal boosters or longer cable runs.

Does this cable support audio interface recording at 24-bit/96kHz?

Yes, this USB 2.0 cable with 480 Mbps transfer rate easily handles high-resolution audio recording and playback. The bandwidth supports multiple channels of 24-bit/96kHz audio typical in professional audio interfaces. The dual shielding construction helps maintain signal integrity during demanding recording sessions.

How does this compare to standard USB printer cables?

While both use USB A-to-B connectors, this cable features professional-grade dual shielding, heavy-duty strain relief, and flexible jacketing designed for frequent handling. Standard printer cables often lack proper shielding and strain relief, making them unsuitable for audio applications where electrical interference and physical durability matter.

What's the difference between USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 for audio equipment?

Most professional audio interfaces and DJ controllers use USB 2.0 connections, making this cable the correct choice. USB 2.0 provides more than sufficient bandwidth for multi-channel audio at high sample rates. USB 3.0 compatibility isn't necessary for audio applications and many audio devices specifically require USB 2.0 connections.
