Left-angle USB 2.0 A-to-Mini-B cable for tight ports

This six-foot cable terminates in a left-facing Type-A plug that hugs the host port, leaving clearance behind laptops, hubs or desktop chassis where a straight connector would foul adjacent cables or case walls. The opposite end carries a straight five-pin Mini-B plug suited to legacy cameras, MP3 players, PDAs and early external drives that still use the Mini-USB interface. It is a direct replacement or spare lead for any device equipped with that port.

Sustained 480 Mbps throughput

Rated to the USB 2.0 high-speed ceiling of 480 Mbps, the cable maintains that bandwidth over its full length thanks to twisted-pair data lines wrapped in combined foil and braid shielding that suppresses EMI and RFI. The construction keeps cross-talk low enough for error-free transfers during long batch off-loads from digital cameras or bulk syncs with older handhelds, without the signal degradation that unshielded leads exhibit under continuous load.

Molded strain relief and PVC over-mold for daily

Both connectors are encapsulated in a single-piece PVC over-mold that extends into molded strain relief, so repeated insertion cycles and routine desk-side bending do not fatigue the solder joints or fracture the internal conductors. The left-angle Type-A hood naturally routes the cable parallel to the host device, reducing lever forces on the port during normal use. The assembly complies with UL communication-cable requirements and remains backward compatible with USB 1.0 and 1.1 hosts.

Questions about this item

Does the left-angle Type-A plug run hot or draw extra power when the cable is used all day?

The cable is passive copper with foil and braid shielding; it adds no active circuitry, so heat and power draw stay at normal USB 2.0 levels.

What must the host device already have for this cable to work?

A standard USB Type-A port (USB 1.0, 1.1 or 2.0) on a PC, Mac or hub; the peripheral needs a 5-pin Mini-B socket.

Will the 6 ft length and 24/20 AWG conductors cause problems with an older USB 1.1 hub?

The cable meets USB 2.0 spec and is backward compatible with 1.0 and 1.1, so it works with legacy hubs at their rated speeds.
