What this cable does

This VCOM CU271-6FEET cable connects a standard USB 2.0 Type A port to a Micro USB 5-pin device. It suits anyone needing a reliable link for charging or syncing older phones, controllers, cameras or external drives that still use the Micro USB interface. The 6.0 ft length gives comfortable reach across a desk or from a wall charger.

The deciding specification

Data moves at up to 480 Mbps, the maximum for USB 2.0, so large file transfers will be slower than on newer standards. If your workflow depends on moving gigabytes in seconds, this cable will bottleneck that task. For everyday charging, firmware updates or modest backups the speed is perfectly adequate.

How it fits your setup

The male-to-male ends plug straight into a host port and a Micro USB device without adapters. A braid-and-foil shield plus an aluminum under-mold layer cut cross-talk, while the ultra-flexible jacket and moulded strain relief survive frequent bending. No driver or external power is required; the cable simply extends the existing USB connection.

Questions about this item

What does the 480 Mbps headline speed mean when I plug this cable into my computer?

The 480 Mbps rating is the maximum theoretical throughput of the USB 2.0 standard; real-world transfer rates will be lower and depend on the host controller, the peripheral, and system load.

Which USB standard does the Type-A to Micro-USB connector pair use, and what does that limit?

This cable follows the USB 2.0 specification, so it caps data at 480 Mbps and cannot deliver the higher power or speeds of later USB versions.

What physical space do I need to route and connect this 6.0 ft cable?

The cable is 6.0 ft long with moulded strain-relief boots on both male ends, so allow a few centimetres of clearance behind each port for the connectors to sit without sharp bends.
