What this cable is and who it serves

A 10-foot USB 2.0 A Male to Micro B cable rated for 480 Mbps data transfer and 2100 mA charging. It connects USB-A hosts such as PCs, printers or hard drives to Micro-B devices including Android phones, tablets, speakers and other compatible peripherals. Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion while the compact head fits most cases.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Ideal for users needing a long, flexible charge-and-sync lead for Micro-B Android gear or legacy USB-A peripherals. Not suited for devices that require USB-C, Lightning or USB 3.0 speeds, nor for buyers who need a shorter cable to reduce clutter on a desk or in a bag.

Capacity and headroom

Handles up to 480 Mbps data throughput and delivers up to 2100 mA at 5 V for charging supported devices. The 10-foot length gives generous reach across a room or behind furniture. Runs out when a device demands USB 3.x bandwidth, higher current than 2100 mA, or a connector type other than Micro-B.

Questions about this item

Do I need a USB-A port on my computer or charger to use this cable?

Yes, the cable has a USB-A male connector that plugs into any standard USB-A port on a PC, laptop or USB charger.

Will the 10 ft length slow down charging on my older Android phone?

The cable supports up to 2100 mA at 5 V, so it can deliver the same current as shorter cables if your power source provides it.

How can I verify the cable is transferring data at USB 2.0 speeds?

Connect it between your PC and phone; the operating system should report a 480 Mbps high-speed connection.
