Powerline USB-C to USB 3.0 cable two-pack

This two-pack supplies two three-foot cables that connect a USB-C device to a USB 3.0 Type-A port. Each cable includes a 56 kOhm pull-up resistor for safe charging and supports data transfer at up to 5 Gbps. The reversible USB-C connector inserts either way up.

Suits phones, tablets and Switch owners

Buyers with a Samsung Galaxy S9, S8, Note 9, Google Pixel, LG V30, G6, G5, Nintendo Switch or OnePlus 5 and 3T can charge and sync from any standard USB-A charger or hub. They are not for users who need a USB-C to USB-C connection or who require bandwidth beyond USB 3.0 speeds.

56 kOhm pull-up resistor for safe charging

The built-in 56 kOhm resistor ensures the cable negotiates correct power levels with USB-A chargers, protecting the connected device. This specification is the deciding factor for buyers who prioritise safe charging compliance.

Questions about this item

How do I install the USB-C to USB 3.0 cable and what step is often missed?

Plug the USB-C end into your device and the USB-A end into a charger or port; the step people miss is confirming the 56k Ohm pull-up resistor is present for safe power negotiation.

What maintenance or replacement will the cable need later?

Inspect the connectors for debris or bent pins periodically; replace the cable if the reversible USB-C tip becomes loose or if data transfer drops below the rated 5 Gbps speed.

What limit appears first during sustained high-speed transfers?

The 5 Gbps USB 3.0 interface ceiling is reached before the cable itself overheats, so sustained writes will plateau at that bandwidth limit.
