Short 8 inch reach for tight ports
This 8 inch USB A to Mini B cable links digital cameras, MP3 players and other Mini B devices to a laptop or desktop. The short length keeps the connector close to the port so there is no dangling slack on a desk or in a bag. It is built for data transfer and charging in one compact run. The black jacket matches most device finishes.
Shielded 28AWG and 24AWG conductors inside
The cable uses 28AWG/2C plus 24AWG/2C shielded wiring to meet UL listed USB 2.0 requirements. Molded jackets protect the strain points at both ends during frequent connect and disconnect cycles. No extra hubs, adapters or power bricks are needed; the host port supplies the current. It fits any standard USB A receptacle and Mini B socket.
Travel ready coil fits in any pocket
The 8 inch coil slips into a laptop sleeve, camera case or shirt pocket without tangling. Business travelers and photographers can carry several without adding bulk. The UL listing confirms the cable meets recognised safety standards for daily use. No software or drivers are bundled because the connection is handled natively by the operating system.

Questions about this item
Will the 8 inch length limit where I can place my camera or MP3 player?
Yes, the 8 inch cable keeps the Mini B device right next to the USB A port, so plan for a very short reach.
Does the 28AWG/2C plus 24AWG/2C shielded wiring stay cool during all day transfers?
The thin 28 AWG data pair and 24 AWG power pair are rated for standard USB 2.0 current, so heat stays low even with continuous use.
My device needs a Mini B port — does this cable provide that connector?
The cable ends in a Mini B plug, so it only works with devices that have a matching Mini B socket.
