What this cable does
This Amazon Basics USB-C to USB-A 2.0 cable delivers up to 480 Mbps data transfer and 15 W charging. It is built for everyday connections between phones, tablets, laptops and standard USB-A chargers or hubs. The 6 ft length adds reach across a desk or bedside table.
Who it suits and who it does not
It suits anyone charging a phone or tablet at 15 W and moving files at USB 2.0 speeds. It is not for users who need faster data rates or higher power delivery for larger laptops. The USB-IF certification and 5000-bend test indicate reliable daily use.
The deciding specification
The cable is rated for USB 2.0 at 480 Mbps and 15 W maximum power. If your device or workflow requires more bandwidth or more watts, this cable will not satisfy that requirement.

Questions about this item
Does the cable get warm or draw much power when I leave it plugged in all day?
It supports up to 15 W charging and USB 2.0 data at 480 Mbps, so power draw stays low and the copper construction runs cool during extended use.
What do I already need to own for this cable to work?
You need a USB-A power source or host — such as a wall charger, power bank, or computer port — and a device with a USB-C port to plug into the other end.
Will it work reliably with my older USB 2.0 laptop ports and power bricks?
Yes, the USB-IF certified USB 2.0 connectors are fully backward compatible with legacy USB-A ports and chargers, delivering the same 480 Mbps data and 15 W charging.
