The USB 3.0 SuperSpeed standard transfers data at up to 5 Gb/s, making it up to 10 x faster than USB 2.0. Additional contacts on are needed on the connectors. On the Type A connector these have been integrated in such a way that their original form has been retained. Thus USB 2.0 and 1.1 compatible devices can be operated on USB 3.0 ports, and USB 3.0 devices can also be operated on older computers. All other connector types are not intercompatible.
