USB 3.0, or SuperSpeed USB, uses broadband signaling that can interfere with cellular and 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi signals, potentially degrading their performance. Customers using cellular or 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks near USB 3.0 devices should take measures to minimize the impact on connectivity. Note that interference is caused by both the USB 3.0 device and its cable. However, 5 GHz Wi-Fi is not significantly affected by USB 3.0 signaling.
