USB-C to USB-A cable for legacy ports

This six-foot cable connects a USB-C device such as a smartphone or tablet to a standard USB-A port on a laptop, desktop or charger. It operates at USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds of 5Gbps and supplies up to 2.4A of charging current. A built-in 56k ohm pull-up resistor follows the USB specification for legacy cables.

Suits users with USB-C devices and USB-A hosts

Buyers who need to link a USB-C phone, tablet or peripheral to an older USB-A port will find this cable fits the task. It is not for users who require USB 3.2 Gen 2 10Gbps throughput or USB Power Delivery negotiation beyond 2.4A. Anyone needing a USB-C to USB-C connection should look at a different cable.

Plug-and-play with reversible USB-C end

The USB-C connector inserts either way, while the USB-A end follows the traditional orientation. No drivers are required on any supported operating system. The only common issue is attempting to draw more than 2.4A from a port that cannot supply it, which will simply limit the charge rate.

Questions about this item

What kind of USB-A port do I need on my computer or charger for this 5Gbps cable to work?

Any standard USB-A port will work; the cable is compatible with USB 3.2, 3.1, 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1 ports.

Will this 6 ft cable charge my older USB-A laptop at the same 2.4A rate as a newer one?

Yes, it delivers up to 2.4A charging on any USB-A port that can supply that current, thanks to the built-in 56k ohm resistor.

How can I confirm the cable is running at 5Gbps after I plug it in?

Check your operating system's device manager or system report; it should list the connection as USB 3.2 Gen 1 or SuperSpeed (5Gbps).
