PROXTEND USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 AOC Cable 5m

The difference between USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.1 Gen 2 is only in terms of speed. USB 3.1 Gen 1 supports speeds of up to 5Gbit/s, while USB 3.1 Gen 2 supports speeds of up to 10Gbit/s. The USB-IF originally planned to use a set of different names for USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.1 Gen 2 for marketing purposes. They wanted to name USB 3.1 Gen 1 "SuperSpeed USB" and and Gen 2 "SuperSpeed USB+", but the industry never caught on. Often, OEMs will add the speeds of 5Gbps or 10Gbps to their spec tables in order to differentiate between the two USB standards. The rest of the industry simply refers to them as "USB 3.1 Gen 1" or "USB 3.1 Gen 2".
