Length: The length is specified as 1.5 meters (approximately 5 feet).
Function: It is used to connect a computer (host) to a peripheral device for data transfer and communication.
Compatibility: Most such cables adhere to the USB 2.0 standard, which supports data transfer speeds up to 480 Mbps (Megabits per second). They are generally backward compatible with older USB versions (1.0 and 1.1).
Physical: The cable in the image is black and appears to have a round shape, not a literal square cross-section, though “square cable” is sometimes used colloquially due to the connector shape.
