  • Dual-host flexibility with USB 3.0 and USB-C connectors

Dual-host cable pack for portable drives

This two-pack provides 15 cm cables with USB 3.0 Type-A and USB-C male plugs on the host side and Micro-B male on the device side. They are built for users who connect portable external hard disks to different computers and want a single cable type that fits both legacy and modern ports.

Plug straight into Type-A or USB-C ports

No driver installation is required; the cables work immediately with any host that supports the USB 3.0 interface. The short length keeps the cable tidy beside a drive, but it leaves no slack for routing around obstacles or reaching ports that are far from the drive’s position.

Check your drive uses a Micro-B 3.0 socket

Verify that the portable drive you own has the wider Micro-B connector used by USB 3.0 devices, not the narrower Micro-B 2.0 or a USB-C device port. Also confirm that a 15 cm reach is sufficient between your computer’s port and where the drive will sit.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the 5 Gbps USB 3.0 link is active after plugging the 15 cm cable into my portable hard drive?

The host computer should report a USB 3.0 connection and file transfers will run at the rated 5 Gbps speed.

What comes in the box and do I need any extra adapters for the Micro-B port on my drive?

The pack contains two 15 cm cables with USB 3.0 Type-A and USB-C male ends to Micro-B male; no additional adapters are required.

Should I choose the USB 3.0 Type-A or USB-C end for my laptop if both ports are available?

Use the USB-C end on newer laptops for a reversible fit, or the USB 3.0 Type-A end on legacy ports; both deliver the same 5 Gbps performance.
