Purpose and audience

This USB 2.0 A to Mini B cable connects cameras, camcorders and other portable devices that use the 5-pin Mini B port to a standard USB A host. It supports data transfer rates up to 480 Mbits/sec for moving pictures and MP3 files.

Check before ordering

Verify that your portable device has a USB Mini B 5-pin socket and that the host provides a USB A port. The cable is male-to-male on both ends and requires no driver installation on modern operating systems.

Upgrade context

It replaces an older USB 1.0 cable and delivers up to 40 times the bandwidth for faster offloads. The jump is worth it when you transfer large batches of photos or video clips and want the full 480 Mbits/sec rate.

Questions about this item

Does the box include any adapters or drivers, or is the USB 2.0 A-to-Mini-B cable the only item?

The package contains only the USB2HABM6 cable with a USB-A male plug on one end and a 5-pin Mini-B male plug on the other; no adapters, drivers or extra accessories are included.

My device has a Mini-B 5-pin port — will this grey cable fit, or do I need a different connector version?

The cable terminates in a Mini-B 5-pin male connector, matching the port found on many digital cameras, camcorders and portable devices; if your equipment uses that exact port, this cable fits without an adapter.

The specs quote 480 Mbits/sec — what transfer speed should I expect when I copy photos from my camera to a Windows PC?

480 Mbits/sec is the USB 2.0 signalling ceiling; real-world throughput will be lower due to protocol overhead, the camera’s internal bus and the host controller, but the cable itself supports the full 2.0 rate.
