Black 3 ft USB-C to Micro-B cable with nickel-plated connectors

Rocstor

Rocstor Y10C146-B1 USB-C to Micro-B gender changer

SKU CH-YB3A-FZ8YX MPN Y10C146-B1

A 3 ft USB cable with reversible Type-C and Micro-B 3.0 connectors for 480 Mbit/s data transfer

  • USB 3.0 Micro-B plug connects legacy drives to USB-C ports
  • Reversible USB-C connector inserts either way up
  • Nickel-plated contacts resist corrosion for reliable data transfer
  • 480 Mbit/s throughput moves files between phone, tablet or notebook
  • RoHS-certified build meets environmental standards

USB-C to Micro-B adapter for legacy devices

This three-foot cable bridges USB-C ports to Micro-B 3.0 connectors found on older smartphones, tablets and portable hard drives. Nickel-plated contacts and full shielding protect the 480 Mbit/s signal path. RoHS-compliant materials and a lifetime warranty back the build quality.

Reversible USB-C plug removes orientation hassle

The Type-C male end inserts either way up, so users no longer fumble with the traditional Micro-B keying. Shielded construction keeps interference low during file transfers or charging sessions. The one-metre length suits desk or travel use without excess slack.

480 Mbit/s ceiling limits high-speed drives

Mechanical hard drives or SSDs that exceed USB 2.0 throughput will bottleneck at this rate. Buyers needing 5 Gbit/s or 10 Gbit/s transfers should select a cable rated for USB 3.1 Gen 1 or Gen 2 instead.

Questions about this item

Will the nickel-plated connectors on this Y10C146-B1 adapter need replacement after repeated plugging?

The nickel plating on the USB-C and Micro-B connectors resists corrosion and wear, so no scheduled replacement is needed under normal use.

What limits the sustained data rate when this cable runs at 480 Mbit/s all day?

The USB 3.0 Micro-B interface caps throughput at 480 Mbit/s, which becomes the bottleneck during continuous transfers.

Does the 3 ft black cable generate noticeable heat when transferring at 480 Mbit/s for hours?

Passive copper construction with shielding stays cool during extended 480 Mbit/s transfers; no active cooling is required.
