Connectivity and reach

The StarTech.com USB2AC4M is a four-metre USB 2.0 cable with a Type-C male connector on one end and a Type-A male connector on the other. It is built for users who need to link USB-C peripherals or mobile devices to a standard USB-A host port across a room or workstation.

Suited uses and limits

The reversible Type-C plug and 480 Mbit/s rating make it practical for charging phones, tablets or accessories and for syncing data where high throughput is not required. Buyers who need faster transfer rates, video output, or a shorter cable for desktop tidiness should look elsewhere.

Deciding specification

The cable is certified to the USB 2.0 standard and delivers 480 Mbit/s over its full four-metre length. If your device or workflow demands higher bandwidth or alternate modes, this specification will not meet that need.

Questions about this item

Does the 4 m USB 2.0 Type-C to Type-A cable ship with any adapters or do I need to buy them separately?

The cable is a single 4 m assembly with a USB Type-A male plug on one end and a USB Type-C male plug on the other; no extra adapters are included or required.

The listing shows only one length — how do I know the 4 m version is the right choice?

This model is offered exclusively in a 4 m (13 ft) length, so if you need a longer reach for charging or syncing across a room, this is the only version available.

What does the 480 Mbit/s rating mean when I plug the cable into a laptop and phone?

The 480 Mbit/s figure is the USB 2.0 maximum transfer rate; real-world file copies will be limited to that speed while charging current depends on the power source you use.
