USB 3.0 Type-C to Type-A cable

This 3.00 ft cable connects a USB 3.0 Type-C device to a USB 3.0 Type-A port. It suits users charging a phone or moving files between a laptop and a peripheral. The thinner 32awg conductors and TPE jacket keep the cable flexible for tight desk spaces or travel bags. It arrives new and ready for daily plug-in use.

Replaces older Micro-USB or USB 2.0 links

The jump is worth it when a device offers a Type-C port and the host still uses Type-A. USB 3.0 signalling moves data up to 5 Gbps, cutting transfer time for large photo libraries or phone backups. The 3.00 ft length reaches a desktop port without leaving slack on the floor. Builders keeping legacy hubs gain modern device support without adapters.

Fits a mixed-port setup

One male Type-C end plugs into a phone, tablet or Switch; the male Type-A end plugs into a PC, charger or hub. The thin conductors reduce strain on shallow ports, and the flexible jacket routes cleanly behind monitors. No extra drivers or power bricks are required. The cable frees up a Type-C port on the host for other peripherals.

Questions about this item

How much space does the 3.00 ft length need on my desk?

The cable measures 3.00 ft (0.9144 m) end to end, so allow roughly that much straight run plus a little slack for the connectors.

Which way round do the USB 3.0 Type-C and Type-A plugs go in?

The Type-C end is reversible; the Type-A end has a single orientation — match the plastic tongue inside the port before pushing.

Will the 32awg conductors and TPE jacket need any special care over time?

No special maintenance is required; just avoid sharp bends near the plugs and unplug by gripping the connector housings, not the cable.
