Cable purpose and audience

The Cables To Go 28829 is a USB 2.0 Type-C male-to-male cable built for charging and data transfer between two USB-C devices. It suits users who need a single cable to power a laptop, phone or tablet while moving files at up to 480 Mbps.

Build quality and daily use

The reversible USB-C connectors plug in either orientation, removing the frustration of upside-down insertion. At 10 feet (3.04 metres) the cable reaches across a desk or from a wall outlet to a sofa, and the 5A current rating supports full-speed charging for compatible hardware.

Practical limits of the standard

Data throughput is capped at 480 Mbps by the USB 2.0 specification, so large video libraries transfer more slowly than on USB 3.1 Gen 2 links. The longer length enables convenient placement but cannot overcome the bandwidth ceiling inherent to the 2.0 interface.

Questions about this item

What data rate does the USB 2.0 interface on this cable cap at in practice?

The USB 2.0 interface limits data transfer to 480 Mbps, so large files move slower than on USB 3.1 Gen 2 cables.

What physical clearance does the 10 ft length and male-to-male USB-C design need to fit between devices?

The cable spans 3.04 metres end-to-end with reversible USB-C plugs on both sides, so allow that reach plus a few centimetres for the connector bodies.

How is the cable installed, and which step do people often get wrong?

Plug either reversible USB-C end into each device; the common mistake is forcing a connector upside-down before noticing the symmetrical design prevents that.
