Heavy-Duty USB-A to USB-C Cable

This 3 ft cable connects a USB-C smartphone, tablet or laptop to a standard USB-A port on a computer, wall charger or car charger. It supports charging and data sync at USB 2.0 speeds up to 480 Mbps. The male-to-male design is backward compatible with older USB generations.

Reinforced Construction for Daily Use

The conductors are wrapped in UHMWPE and bulletproof Aramid fiber to resist pulling, bending and frequent strain. A double-braided nylon jacket protects the exterior from abrasion and wear. These materials keep the cable functional after repeated heavy use.

What the Build Enables

The reinforced internals and braided jacket mean the cable survives the tugging and twisting common with mobile charging. You can rely on a stable connection for both power and data without the cable fraying or failing prematurely.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the USB-A end into a wall charger without damaging the reinforced jacket?

Align the USB-A connector with the charger port and insert it straight in; the double-braided nylon jacket resists bending but forcing it at an angle can still strain the internal UHMWPE and Aramid reinforcement.

Will the UHMWPE and Aramid fiber reinforcement degrade and require cable replacement?

The UHMWPE and Aramid fiber are built into the cable construction and do not wear out separately; replace the cable only if the connectors become loose or the jacket shows visible fraying.

At what point does the 480 Mbps USB 2.0 transfer rate become the bottleneck during large file moves?

The 480 Mbps USB 2.0 limit is reached whenever you copy files larger than a few hundred megabytes; sustained throughput will not exceed this rate regardless of the host or device speed.
