What this cable does and who it fits

This Monoprice USB-C to USB-A 2.0 cable is 1.5 ft long and coloured blue. It connects a USB-C phone, tablet or accessory to a standard Type-A port on a charger, power bank or computer. The cable supports up to 3 amps and 60 watts for fast charging and handles data at up to 480 Mbps. It suits anyone needing a short, durable link for travel or desk use.

Check your ports and power needs first

Verify that your mobile device has a USB-C socket and that the host side offers a USB-A receptacle. The cable is rated for USB 2.0 speeds, so it will not deliver USB 3.x or higher throughput. Confirm that your charger or port can supply the current your device requires; the cable itself handles up to 3 amps. No driver installation is needed for basic charging or syncing.

Build quality and everyday handling

A nylon-braided jacket protects the conductors from nicks and cuts while resisting tangles in a bag or pocket. Both connectors are male with aluminum shells that reinforce the plug body against repeated insertion. The short 1.5 ft length keeps clutter low on a desk or in a car console. Blue colour coding helps identify the cable quickly among others.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the Monoprice 138911 cable and do I need to buy a charger separately?

The box contains the 1.5 ft USB-C to USB-A 2.0 cable with nylon braiding and aluminum connectors; any USB-A wall charger, car charger, power bank or PC port must be supplied separately.

Which version of this cable should I choose for fast charging and data sync?

This single model 138911 delivers up to 3 amps and 60 watts of charging power plus 480 Mbps data transfer, so no other version or capacity option exists.

What does the 480 Mbps rating mean when I plug the cable into my laptop?

It is the maximum USB 2.0 bulk-endpoint throughput, so real-world file copies will typically run below that figure depending on the host controller, device storage speed and cable length.
