But, they can be used for virtually any USB device. Let's say you have a bulky laser printer but don't have room for it on your desk, right next to your computer. And let's say the USB-A to USB-B cord you already have isn't long enough to reach the location for the printer… you could take that cord you already have and use this to extend it farther in lieu of ordering a more niche 12-15 foot USB-A to USB-B cord. You could even plug these 2 USB extenders into each other and make a 12 foot extension - this "daisy chaining" would work fine for something like a printer but I wouldn't recommend it for any higher bandwidth applications.
I like having a few of these extenders handy because they provide some versatility. Especially if you want to try plugging something in on the other side of the room from your computer in a temporary sense that it wouldn't make sense to invest in a long cord specifically for that because it will be changed later
