Connect USB-B peripherals to USB-C

This two-metre cable links USB 2.0 Type-B devices such as printers, scanners or external drives to computers equipped with USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 ports. The reversible Type-C plug inserts either way up, removing orientation hassle. Nickel-plated connectors and foil-plus-braid shielding protect signal integrity. The PVC jacket resists everyday wear.

Sustained 480 Mbit/s throughput over the full length

Rated at USB 2.0 speeds, the cable maintains 480 Mbit/s across the entire 2 m run without the drop-off seen in longer or unshielded leads. The 22/30 AWG conductors and aluminium-Mylar foil with braid minimise interference during extended print jobs or large file transfers. Straight connectors reduce strain on ports during continuous use.

Reversible USB-C male to USB-B male connector pair

The decisive specification is the male-to-male combination of a 24-pin USB-C 2.0 plug and a 4-pin USB-B plug. This pin-out only serves USB 2.0 peripherals; it cannot carry USB 3.x, DisplayPort or power-delivery signals. Buyers needing faster data rates or alternate-mode video must choose a different cable.

Questions about this item

Does the USB2CB2M cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when left connected to a printer all day?

The cable is passive with 22/30 AWG conductors and aluminium-Mylar foil plus braid shielding, so it adds no active heat or measurable power draw during continuous use.

What port must my computer already have for this USB Type-C to USB-B cable to work?

Your computer needs a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port; the reversible 24-pin USB-C plug connects directly without adapters.

Will this cable work reliably with an older USB 2.0 scanner that uses a standard USB-B socket?

Yes — the 4-pin USB-B male connector mates with legacy USB 2.0 peripherals and the link runs at the full 480 Mbit/s USB 2.0 rate.
