Connecting docks and devices

This 1.8 m cable links a USB 3.0 Type-A port to a Micro-USB 3.0 Type-B port. It is built for owners of Targus USB 3.0 docking stations who need a reliable link to tablets, notebooks or PCs. The black cable handles data transfers, synchronisation and charging in one run. Its length fits a typical desk layout without excess slack.

Desk users with Micro-USB 3.0 gear

The cable suits anyone connecting a Micro-USB 3.0 device to a standard USB-A host or dock. It will not work for hardware that uses USB-C, Mini-USB or the older Micro-USB 2.0 connector. Buyers who need a longer reach or a different connector type should look at other cables. No driver installation is required for the supported USB 3.0 interface.

USB 3.0 Micro-B connector decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the Micro-USB 3.0 Type-B plug on the device end. Only equipment with that exact port can use this cable. The USB 3.0 Type-A plug on the host end is the common rectangular port found on most docks and computers. Match the port shape before ordering.

Questions about this item

What does the 3.0 rating mean for actual transfer speed on this cable?

The USB 3.0 connection supports up to 5 Gbit/s throughput between a computer and a Micro-B 3.0 device such as a dock or external drive.

Which USB standard does the Micro-B end use, and what does it limit?

The second end is a Micro USB 3.0 Type B plug, so it only fits USB 3.0 Micro-B ports and caps the link at USB 3.0 speeds.

How long is the 1.8 m cable in feet, and will it reach a dock on my desk?

It measures 5.91 ft, long enough to bridge a typical desk gap between a laptop and a USB 3.0 docking station.
