8-inch USB A to Mini-B cable

This 8-inch white cable connects a standard USB-A port to Mini-B devices such as digital cameras and MP3 players. It is built for short-range data transfer and charging where a long lead would be cumbersome. The compact length suits travel bags and tight desk spaces.

Replaces longer legacy cables

Swapping a standard-length cable for this short version reduces clutter when the peripheral sits next to a laptop or hub. The jump is worth it if you routinely coil excess wire or need a tidy connection for portable gear.

Check device port and USB 2.0 needs

Verify that your peripheral uses a Mini-B socket rather than Micro-B or USB-C before ordering. The cable is rated for USB 2.0 speeds, so confirm that your host and device do not require a higher specification.

Questions about this item

Will the USB A connector fit a standard laptop port?

Yes, the USB A end plugs into any standard rectangular USB port on a laptop or desktop.

Is there a specific way to align the Mini B end when plugging it in?

The Mini B connector is trapezoidal; match the wider side to the port and insert straight without forcing.

Does the shielding or wiring degrade over time with frequent bending?

The 28AWG/2C+24AWG/2C shielded construction resists wear, but replace the cable if the jacket cracks or connections become intermittent.
