USB-C OTG cable with auxiliary power

This Vszerda UC-001-BK cable connects a USB 3.1 Type-C host to USB 2.0 peripherals such as flash drives or hard disks. An extra USB-A pigtail supplies power to the attached device so bus-powered drives can spin up reliably. The cable is new and measures 3.94 inches in length.

Suits phones and tablets needing OTG access

Users who want to read a USB stick or portable drive from a USB-C phone or tablet will find the adapter convenient. It is not intended for charging the host device, so buyers who need power delivery to a laptop or phone should look at a different solution. The USB 2.0 interface limits transfer rates to that standard.

Handles flash drives and portable hard disks

The auxiliary power lead lets the cable run bus-powered hard disks that would otherwise exceed the host port current limit. It comfortably manages everyday file transfers and media playback from standard USB 2.0 storage. Very large drives or RAID enclosures that demand more current than the extra lead can provide will exceed its headroom.
