Connect USB-B peripherals to USB-C hosts

This cable links a USB 2.0 Type-B device such as a printer or scanner to a computer equipped with a USB-C port. It supports data transfer at up to 480 Mbit/s and is intended for users who need to keep legacy peripherals working on modern laptops or desktops. The reversible Type-C plug simplifies insertion.

Reversible Type-C plug eases daily use

The male Type-C connector inserts either way up, removing the frustration of aligning the plug in tight spaces. A PVC jacket with aluminum-Mylar foil and braid shielding protects the signal path. Nickel-plated contacts resist corrosion for a reliable connection over repeated mating cycles.

Replaces a standard USB-A to USB-B cable

When a host no longer offers a USB-A port, this cable substitutes the older link without requiring an adapter. The upgrade is worthwhile whenever a USB-B peripheral must connect directly to a USB-C or USB 3.1 capable system and the 1.00 m reach suits the desk layout.

Questions about this item

Does the USB 2.0 rating cap transfer speeds at 480 Mbps during long file moves?

Yes, the cable is specified for USB 2.0 at 480 Mbps, so sustained transfers will not exceed that rate.

Will the PVC jacket and foil-braid shield keep the cable cool and quiet during all-day use?

The cable is passive with no active electronics, so it produces no noise and negligible heat during continuous operation.

Must the host already have a USB-C port and the device a USB-B port for this cable to work?

Yes, one end is a USB-C male plug for the host and the other is a USB-B male plug for the peripheral.
