Product identity
The Cables To Go 28871 is a USB 2.0 cable with a USB-C male connector on one end and a USB-A male connector on the other. It links devices such as a Thunderbolt 3 host, tablet, Chromebook Pixel, Samsung Galaxy TabPro S, LG G6 or MacBook to standard USB-A ports. The black cable suits users who need a straightforward legacy-speed connection between modern Type-C gear and older Type-A hubs, chargers or peripherals.
Thermals noise and power
As a passive copper cable it generates no heat of its own and adds no audible noise to the system. Power delivery follows the USB 2.0 specification, so the host and device negotiate current without active circuitry in the cable. The six-foot length stays within the electrical limits for USB 2.0 signalling, keeping voltage drop negligible for typical charging and data tasks.
Sustained load behaviour
During extended transfers the cable maintains USB 2.0 throughput without thermal throttling because there are no active components to overheat. Signal integrity remains stable over the full length for the duration of long backups or sync operations. The moulded strain relief on each connector resists fatigue from repeated insertion cycles, preserving reliable contact under daily connect and disconnect use.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 28871 cable and which orientation do people get wrong?
Plug the USB-C male end into the host or device port and the USB-A male end into the peripheral or charger; the USB-C connector is reversible, but the USB-A plug only inserts one way, so align the plastic tab before pushing.
What maintenance or replacement will the 28871 cable need later?
Inspect the black PVC jacket and both male connectors for fraying, bent pins or intermittent contact; replace the cable if the USB-C latch no longer clicks or the USB-A shell wobbles in the port.
What limit shows up first on the 28871 cable under sustained use?
The USB 2.0 signalling rate caps sustained throughput, so large file transfers or continuous video streams will hit that ceiling before the 6-foot length or connector durability become factors.
