USB 3.1 Type-C to USB 2.0 Type-B Cable

This 6.5ft cable connects a USB Type-C host to a USB 2.0 Type-B device such as a printer or scanner. It supports USB 3.1 host speeds while the device end remains limited to USB 2.0 data rates. The multicolour jacket aids identification in busy cable runs.

Installation notes

Plug the Type-C connector into the host port and the Type-B connector into the peripheral; no drivers are required for standard USB device classes. The male-to-female terminal gender means the Type-B end mates with a port on the device, not another cable. Ensure the Type-C plug is fully seated, as partial insertion can cause intermittent enumeration.

Before ordering

Verify that your host provides a USB Type-C port and that the peripheral uses a USB 2.0 Type-B receptacle. The cable is 6.5ft long, so confirm the reach suits your desk layout. This product does not adapt USB 3.0 or 3.1 Type-B devices, nor does it carry video or power-delivery signals beyond standard USB 2.0 limits.
