Product Identity

The Vszerda USB C to USB 2.0 B Male Cable links a USB-C host computer to a standard USB-B peripheral such as a printer, scanner, MIDI controller or development board. It is built for users who need a direct wired link between a modern Type-C laptop and legacy USB-B equipment.

Critical Specification

The cable operates at USB 2.0 High Speed with a maximum data rate of 480 Mbps and measures 3.3FT (1 Meter) in length. The USB-C plug is the host side only; it will not connect an Android smartphone or tablet directly to a printer.

Installation Notes

Plug the USB-C end into the computer and the USB-B end into the peripheral; no driver is required for the cable itself. The connection fails if the USB-C port is on an Android phone or tablet, so verify the host device is a supported laptop or Windows tablet before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What does the 480 Mbps rating mean when I plug this cable into my laptop and printer?

It sets the maximum data transfer speed at USB 2.0 High Speed, so print jobs and scans move at up to 480 megabits per second between the host and the peripheral.

Which USB standard does the Type C connector follow and what does that limit?

The Type C plug is a USB 3.1 host connector, but the cable is wired for USB 2.0 signalling, so the link caps at 480 Mbps even though the port can handle more.

Will the 3.3 ft length reach from my desk to a floor-standing printer?

At 3.3 feet (1 metre) the cable suits close-range setups; measure the gap before buying if the printer sits farther away.
