Cable Purpose

The StarTech USB2HABM6LA is a 6 ft USB 2.0 cable with a Type‑A plug on one end and a left‑angled Mini‑B plug on the other. It connects legacy cameras, external hard drives or GPS units that still use the Mini‑B port to any standard USB‑A host. The left‑angle design keeps the cable running parallel to the device, which is useful when the port sits close to a desk edge or a tight enclosure.

Build and Connectors

Both ends are male moulded connectors with strain relief, and the jacket is black PVC rated at 28 AWG. Aluminium‑Mylar foil plus a braided shield surrounds the conductors to reduce interference during high‑speed transfers. The left‑angled Mini‑B head reduces mechanical stress on the device port, while the straight Type‑A end fits any conventional USB‑A socket without blocking adjacent ports.

Deciding Specification

This cable is certified for USB 2.0 signalling at 480 Mbit/s, so it will not support the 5 Gbit/s or higher rates required by USB 3.0 and later devices. If the peripheral you are connecting demands SuperSpeed throughput, this cable will become the bottleneck; otherwise it delivers full USB 2.0 performance for data sync and charging.

Questions about this item

What data rate does the USB 2.0 interface on this cable cap at in practice?

The USB 2.0 interface supports high-speed data transfer rates of up to 480 Mbps.

What physical clearance does the left-angled Mini USB connector need to fit?

The left-angled Mini USB connector directs the cable sideways, reducing the depth required behind the device port.

How is this cable installed, and what step do people often get wrong?

Plug the USB A end into the host and the left-angled Mini B end into the device; forcing the angled connector the wrong way can damage the port.
