• Connecting USB-C peripherals such as card readers or audio interfaces to older hosts
• Short-reach connections in desktop setups, travel use, and laptop docking

Key specifications

• Interface: USB 3.0
• Connector A: USB-A (male)
• Connector B: USB-C (male)
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Primary functions: data transfer and power delivery
• Typical use: short-reach, high-speed connections between USB-A hosts and USB-C devices

How to use

Insert the USB-A end into the host device (computer, laptop, docking station or charger) and connect the USB-C end to the target device (smartphone, tablet, external drive or peripheral). Ensure connections are fully seated before transferring data or charging. When transferring large files, allow the host and device to complete any indexing or syncing processes before disconnecting to avoid data corruption.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short-distance connections to minimize signal degradation. Avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors and disconnect by pulling the connector housing rather than the cable. For maximum transfer performance, use with devices and hosts that support USB 3.0 or higher and ensure appropriate drivers are installed on the host system.
