I actually have a APC UPS at work that uses a USB-A to USB-A cable. You can look up the cable online, it's part number 940-0504. I was surprised APC used such a cable. I think if you tried to do something dumb like connect two PCs together with it, one of the USB ports would fry.

I have a cheap HDMI capture device that takes in video input, exposes it to the computer as a regular webcam, and then outputs it back to HDMI. It gets the job done.
It uses an USB male to male for power, and a regular one for data.
That said, not sure how a short one like that would help.
I had an old Medion digital camera that used USB-A - USB-A cable for synching with PC.
This could be a shorter version of it, tho idk why would anyone use this for thus purpose, would be awkward
