What this cable does

This USB 3.2 Gen 2 braided cable delivers 10Gbps data transfer and up to 60W charging through a USB Type-A to USB-C connection. It includes a 56K resistor for safe power negotiation. The 1.6 ft length suits desktop setups where devices sit close together.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

The cable fits users who need fast file moves between a USB-C SSD or phone and a USB-A port on a laptop, dock or car system. Buyers who want more length for routing behind furniture, or who require a USB-C to USB-C plug, should look elsewhere.

Behaviour under sustained load

The braided jacket and metal connector housings help the cable maintain its 10Gbps signal and 3A current during long transfers or continuous charging sessions. Heat stays low enough that performance does not throttle when the link runs at full rate for extended periods.

Questions about this item

What host port is required for the USB-A connector on this cable?

The cable ends in a standard USB-A plug, so the host must provide a USB-A receptacle that supports 10 Gbps operation.

Will the 1.6 ft length reach a desktop tower port from a floor-standing dock?

At 1.6 ft the cable spans roughly half a metre, suitable for side-by-side devices but likely too short for tower-to-floor setups.

How can I confirm the link is running at the rated 10 Gbps after connecting an SSD?

Check the OS device manager or system report for a 10 Gbps SuperSpeed USB 10Gbps connection and verify sustained read speeds approaching 1250 MB/s.
