Cable purpose and audience
This USB-C to Micro-USB cable connects USB 2.0 Micro-B peripherals to a USB-C host for charging and data syncing. It suits anyone needing a short link between legacy devices and newer ports.
Fit and limits
The .5 metre length works for desk-side connections but not for reaching distant ports. Buyers who need more reach should look at longer cables. The USB 2.0 rating caps transfer at 480 Mbit/s, so users requiring faster speeds need a different standard.
Sustained behaviour
The 22 / 30 AWG conductors and nickel-plated contacts maintain the rated 480 Mbit/s throughput during extended sync sessions. PVC jacket and straight connectors resist wear from repeated insertion without signal degradation.

Questions about this item
What USB-C host port is required for this cable to charge and sync a Micro-USB device?
The cable works with any USB-C host port that supports USB 2.0 data and power delivery, including Thunderbolt 3 ports, because the reversible Type-C plug carries the 480 Mbit/s signal and charging current.
Will this 0.5 m cable reach a Micro-USB peripheral connected to a USB-A hub that I keep on my desk?
The cable has a USB Type-C male plug on one end and a Micro-USB male plug on the other; it cannot connect directly to a USB-A hub without a separate USB-C to USB-A adapter.
How can I verify the link is running at USB 2.0 speed after plugging in the cable?
On the host computer, check the device properties or system profiler — it should report a 480 Mbit/s connection for the attached Micro-USB device when the cable is seated correctly.
