Universal USB-C to USB-A cable

This 3 ft cable links a USB-C device to a standard USB-A host port. It suits anyone connecting phones, tablets, laptops or peripherals that use the newer reversible plug. The reversible USB-C end removes orientation frustration during every connection.

Sustained 10 Gbps transfer headroom

The cable meets USB 3.2 Gen 2 specifications for 10 Gbps SuperSpeed+ throughput. That bandwidth is maintained across the full 3 ft length rather than dropping after a short burst. Backward compatibility covers USB 3.2 Gen 1, USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices automatically.

Practical limits of the USB-A interface

The USB-A host port caps deliverable power well below the 100 W the USB-C standard allows for future applications. Durability is rated at 10000 connect/disconnect cycles for long service life. Buyers needing longer reach should choose the 6 ft variant instead.

Questions about this item

Does the USB3-AC1MB cable get warm or draw noticeable power during sustained 10 Gbps transfers?

The cable is passive and carries up to 100 W per the USB 3.2 specification, so any warmth depends on the host and device endpoints rather than the cable itself.

What ports must my laptop and peripheral already have for this cable to work?

You need a USB Type-A 3.2/3.1/3.0/2.0 port on the host side and a USB Type-C port on the device side; the cable bridges those two interfaces.

Will this cable run at 10 Gbps when I plug it into my older USB 3.0 Type-A hub?

It will operate at the hub's maximum of 5 Gbps because USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) is the highest common speed both ends support.
