USB 2.0 Male A to Mini B cable
This USB 2.0 Male A to Mini B 5-pin cable connects legacy devices such as older phones, MP3 players, PDAs and GPS units to a computer. It supports data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps and operates as a hot-swappable, plug-and-play link. The cable is intended for users who need to move images or files from older portable gear to a modern USB-A port.
Metal and plastic construction with standard
The cable uses a metal-and-plastic build with a black finish and terminates in a USB-A male plug and a Mini-B 5-pin plug. The connectors are moulded for strain relief, so repeated insertion and removal during daily sync or charge cycles remains reliable. Cable length is supplied at random, so the exact reach will vary per unit.
Replaces worn or missing Mini-B cables
This cable replaces a lost or damaged Mini-B lead for devices that still rely on the 5-pin interface. The jump is worth it when the original cord is frayed, too short or no longer seats securely, restoring full 480 Mbps throughput without driver installation. It does not serve devices that have migrated to Micro-B, USB-C or proprietary connectors.

Questions about this item
What practical speed limit does the USB 2.0 interface impose on this cable?
The USB 2.0 connection caps real-world throughput at 480 Mbps, which is the maximum rate the cable can sustain for data transfers.
What physical connectors must my devices provide for this cable to fit?
One end needs a standard USB Type-A port and the other a Mini-B 5-pin socket; the cable has a fixed Male-A plug and a Mini-B 5-pin plug.
How do I install the cable and what step is commonly missed?
Plug the Type-A end into the host and the Mini-B end into the device; the step often missed is ensuring both connectors seat fully so the hot-swap detection registers.
