USB C to Micro B Cable 2m

This USB 2.0 cable connects Micro-B devices to USB-C hosts for charging and data sync. The reversible Type-C plug inserts either way up. Nickel-plated connectors and a PVC jacket provide durable everyday use.

USB 2.0 480 Mbit/s interface limit

The USB 2.0 standard caps transfer speed at 480 Mbit/s, so large file moves take longer than on faster interfaces. Thunderbolt 3 ports accept the connector but operate at USB 2.0 rates only.

2 metre reach for flexible placement

The 22/30 AWG conductors and foil-plus-braid shielding maintain reliable signal across the full length. It suits desktop peripherals, external drives and power-bank charging where extra reach is needed.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 2 m length or a shorter cable for my desk setup?

The 2 m length gives extra reach for charging from a wall outlet or power bank while still supporting the full 480 Mbit/s data rate.

What does the 480 Mbit/s rating mean when I copy files to an external drive?

It sets the maximum USB 2.0 bulk-endpoint throughput, so real-world transfer speeds will be limited by that protocol ceiling rather than the cable itself.

Will the USB-C plug work with a Thunderbolt 3 port on my laptop?

Yes, the cable is Thunderbolt 3 port compatible and will carry USB 2.0 signals through that connector.
