USB 3.1 Type-A to Type-C FPC cable

This flat flexible cable connects a USB Type-A host to a USB Type-C device for data and power. It is built for users who need a slim, bendable link between laptops, phones, tablets or external drives in tight spaces. The 20 cm length keeps clutter low while the reversible Type-C plug simplifies insertion.

Practical limits of the USB 3.1 interface

The cable supports a maximum 10 Gbps data rate under the USB 3.1 specification and falls back to USB 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1 speeds when connected to older ports. Power delivery is capped at 5 V 3 A for a peak of 15 W, so it cannot drive higher-voltage or higher-current charging profiles. The flat FPC construction saves space but does not alter the electrical ceiling of the standard.

Capacity and headroom for everyday use

At 10 Gbps the link comfortably handles large file transfers, drive backups and 4K video offloads from compatible storage. The 15 W power budget is sufficient for bus-powered SSDs, phone charging and most portable peripherals. It will not support power-hungry devices such as laptop docking stations or multi-bay RAID enclosures that demand more current or voltage.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 20 cm flat FPC cable or a longer round cable for my setup?

The 20 cm flat FPC design saves space and bends easily inside tight enclosures, while a longer round cable adds reach but more bulk. Choose the short flat version when routing behind a laptop or inside a compact case.

What does the 10 Gbps rating actually deliver when I plug this into my laptop?

You get up to 10 Gbps with USB 3.1 Gen 2 devices, 5 Gbps with USB 3.0 gear, and automatic fallback to 480 Mbps or 1.5 Mbps for older peripherals.

The cable has a USB 3.1 Type-A plug — what speed ceiling does that connector impose?

The Type-A end follows the USB 3.1 spec, so the practical ceiling is 10 Gbps; it will not exceed that even if the host controller is faster.
