Universal USB-C to USB 3.0 cable

This three-foot cable connects USB-C devices to standard USB-A ports for charging and data transfer. The integrated 56k Ohm pull-up resistor ensures safe current negotiation with legacy chargers and hubs. Reversible USB-C connector allows insertion either way up. Supports USB 3.0 speeds up to 5 Gbps for fast file syncing.

Suits owners of USB-C phones.

Users who require USB Power Delivery negotiation or higher bandwidth than USB 3.0 cannot use this cable. Buyers needing longer reach or USB-C to USB-C connectivity should look at something else. The 56k Ohm resistor is fixed and cannot be changed for different charging profiles.

56k Ohm pull-up resistor defines safe charging

This single component limits the cable to standard USB-A current levels and prevents excessive draw from older power sources. Without it, some USB-C devices could demand more power than a legacy port can supply. The resistor value is built into the plug and is not configurable.
