USB 2.0 Type A to DC 5.5 x 2.1mm power cable

This one-metre white cable connects a standard USB 2.0 Type A port to a 5.5 mm by 2.1 mm barrel jack. It is intended for users who need to power small 5 V DC devices such as routers, hubs, portable drives or LED strips from a USB source. The male-to-male construction uses copper conductors for stable 5 V delivery.

Check your device voltage

The cable only supplies 5 V DC and is not compatible with equipment that requires a higher voltage. Verify that your hardware uses a 5.5 mm outer and 2.1 mm inner diameter barrel input and draws no more than 3 A. The USB Type A plug must fit a host port capable of providing sufficient current for the attached load.

Sustained load stays within the 5 V 3 A limit

Under continuous operation the copper core keeps transmission heat low while maintaining stable conduction up to the rated 3 A ceiling. The 480 megabits per second USB 2.0 interface does not throttle the power path, so connected devices receive consistent voltage during extended use. The lightweight 3.3 ft length remains practical for permanent desk or travel setups.

Questions about this item

Does the cable include the USB Type A and 5.5 x 2.1 mm barrel connectors or must they be bought separately?

The cable ships with both a USB Type A male plug and a 5.5 x 2.1 mm male barrel jack permanently attached, so no extra connectors are needed.

Should I choose a different length or connector size for my router?

This model is fixed at 1 m length with a 5.5 x 2.1 mm barrel jack; if your device uses that exact jack and the distance suits you, this is the version to take.

What does the 480 Mbps rating mean when I plug the cable into a USB port?

The 480 Mbps figure is the USB 2.0 data specification; this cable only carries 5 V DC power, so the data rate is not used in practice.
