Versatile USB-C to Micro USB Cable

This 3.3 ft cable links a USB-C host to any device with a Micro USB 2.0 port such as older smartphones, tablets, cameras or game controllers. It supports 480 Mbps data transfer and 15 W charging through gold-plated connectors and a braided jacket with strain relief.

Suits legacy Micro USB 2.0 gear only

Ideal for owners of Galaxy S7, Nexus 5, Kindle Paperwhite 2018 or PS4 controllers that still use the 5-pin Micro USB 2.0 connector. Not for devices that require Micro USB 3.0, Mini USB or any HDMI video output; those ports will not fit or function with this cable.

USB 2.0 480 Mbps data rate decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the USB 2.0 interface limited to 480 Mbps. If the target device needs faster transfer or a different connector standard this cable cannot meet that requirement.
