Compact 12 cm USB-A to 3.5 mm DC Cable

This 12 cm cable connects a standard USB-A port to a 3.5 mm barrel jack, delivering 5 V power to small electronics. It suits users who need a short, tidy link for portable devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players, PDAs or handheld game consoles. The 2.0 A rating supports typical low-power charging and operation.

Passive design runs cool and silent

With no active components the cable produces no heat and no audible noise during normal use. Power draw is limited to the 2.0 A rating of the connected USB-A source, so it imposes minimal load on laptops, power banks or wall adapters. The short 12 cm length keeps voltage drop negligible.

Retail pack includes single cable only

The boxed package contains one black USB-A to 3.5 mm DC connector cable and no additional adapters, software or mounting hardware. The fixed 12 cm length cannot be extended, so buyers needing longer reach or multiple tips must source separate accessories.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the 3.5 mm barrel end into my device without forcing it?

Align the centre pin of the 3.5 mm barrel plug with the socket on your device and push straight in until it seats firmly; the USB-A end then goes into any 5 V USB port.

Will the cable insulation or connectors need replacing after regular use?

The cable is built for durable daily use; no scheduled maintenance is required, simply inspect the USB-A and 3.5 mm plugs for wear if the connection becomes intermittent.

What stops me from drawing more than 2.0 A through this 12 cm lead?

The cable is rated for 2.0 A at 5 V; exceeding that current will cause voltage drop and heating, so keep the load at or below 2.0 A.
