Zebra CBA-U03-S07ZAR — Power Plus (PoweredUSB) Scanner Cable, 7 ft
Power Plus host plug2.1 m / 7 ft straightPowered by the POS portZebra universal cable
The Zebra CBA-U03-S07ZAR is a straight 7 ft (2.1 m) USB cable with a Power Plus (PoweredUSB) host connector, used to connect a Zebra (formerly Symbol/Motorola) scanner with a detachable cable to the powered USB port of a retail POS terminal. Zebra lists it in its universal cable table as "Cable - USB: Power Plus connector, 7 ft (2 m) straight".
With PoweredUSB, the terminal supplies the scanner's power through the same plug, so there is no external power supply at the checkout. This is the cable POS installers use when the terminal has a powered USB port free and they want a clean counter.
Before you order: The Power Plus plug only fits a PoweredUSB port on a POS terminal (e.g. Toshiba/IBM, NCR, Diebold Nixdorf). It does NOT fit a normal PC USB-A port. Zebra does not state the voltage of this ZAR version in its table; the explicitly 12 V shielded version is CBA-U23-S07ZBR — send us the terminal and scanner model and we will confirm which one you need.
What's in the Box
- 1 × Zebra USB cable, Power Plus (PoweredUSB) connector, 2.1 m (7 ft), straight
- No power supply (not needed on a PoweredUSB port)
What It Means in Practice
- Scanner data and power come through one cable from the POS terminal.
- 2.1 m straight suits a scanner on the counter next to the terminal.
- Feed and Zebra listings tie it to the LS3408-ER rugged scanner family as well as other universal-cable Zebra scanners — confirm your model with us.
What Will Not Work
- A standard PC or laptop USB-A port — the Power Plus plug is different. Use a Zebra USB Series A cable.
- Serial COM ports.
- Non-Zebra scanners.
- Scanners with a fixed, non-detachable cable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference from CBA-U23-S07ZBR?
Both are 7 ft Power Plus cables. Zebra lists the U23 ZBR version explicitly as shielded 12 V for the DS9908 and SP72; this U03 ZAR version is the older universal-table cable.
Can I plug it into a laptop?
No — for a normal USB port choose a Zebra USB Series A cable.
Do I need a power supply?
No, the PoweredUSB port powers the scanner.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
Power Plus cables only make sense if your POS terminal has a free PoweredUSB port; otherwise a standard USB-A cable is the right buy. If you are replacing an existing Power Plus cable, read the part number off the old one and send it to us. More in our
scanner accessories.
✓ Buy it if your POS terminal has a PoweredUSB port and the scanner has a detachable Zebra cable.
✕ Skip it if you connect to a normal PC USB port or the terminal port is the 12 V variant listed for CBA-U23-S07ZBR.
→ Also consider Zebra CBA-U23-S07ZBR (shielded, 12 V) for DS9908 / SP72.
Not sure which cable your scanner needs? Send us the scanner model (it is on the label under the scanner) and the port you will plug into, and we will confirm the right cable before you order.
