A description of the Universal Serial Bus [USB] has resided on the site for years now. That page dealt with revisions 1 and revisions 2.0. However the specification changes within revision 3.0 are so different a new page has been created; Super Speed USB.
Revision 2.0 of the USB specification operated up to 480Mbps, while revision 3.0 of the standard can operate up to 4.8Gbps a 10x increase in the operational data rate. The cable and connectors have also changed by adding two additional twisted wire pairs.
The new page is still a copy of the original USB but over the next few days the 2.0 data will be replaced by the 3.0 information. Also added a new page to hold the new 3.0 USB Cable diagram, but again it's still a copy of the revision 2.0 cable.
