CableCreation USB 2.0 Micro-B Cable 6 ft

This braided cable connects USB-A hosts to Micro-B devices for charging and data sync. It suits owners of older Android phones, tablets, MP3 players, cameras and single-board computers such as Raspberry Pi Zero. The 1.8 m length gives extra reach for desk or bedside use. Aluminium connector shells and a cotton-braided jacket protect the conductors.

Replaces worn or short Micro-B leads

Swap this in when an original cable frays, charges slowly or fails to enumerate at 480 Mbps. The 24 AWG power cores support 2.4 A charging, which is faster than many thin stock cables. The jump is worth it if you need reliable sync with Fire Stick, Chromecast or similar streaming sticks. Backward compatible with USB 1.1 ports.

Fits standard USB-A ports and Micro-B sockets

Male-to-male terminals plug directly into chargers, PC ports or hubs without adapters. Triple shielding — aluminium Mylar, tin-copper braid and twisted pairs — reduces interference on long runs. The braided exterior resists tangling and survives over 10000 bend cycles. Frees up shorter cables for travel kits.

Questions about this item

What length and connector type does this cable need to reach a Micro-B port?

The cable is 1.8 metres long with a USB-A male plug on one end and a Micro-B male plug on the other, so it reaches standard Micro-B devices without adapters.

How do I plug it in so the data pins make contact on the first try?

Align the wider USB-A connector with the host port and the narrower Micro-B connector with the device port; both are keyed, so they only insert one way — forcing them bends the internal 5-pin contacts.

When should I replace the cable if the braided jacket starts to fray?

The jacket is rated for over 10000 bend cycles; once visible fibres break or the aluminium connector housings loosen, swap the cable to keep 2.4 A charging and 480 Mbps data reliable.
