  • Transfers 10 GB in 10 seconds at 5 Gbps
  • 18 W fast charging fills a 3700 mAh phone in 112 minutes
  • Double-braided nylon and aluminium housing survive 10 000 bends

What this cable does

This USB-A to USB-C cable supports USB 3.0 data transfer at up to 5 Gbps and carries up to 18 W of power at 5 V and 3 A. It is built for users who need faster file syncing and quicker charging than a standard USB 2.0 lead provides.

Who it suits and who it does not

It suits owners of USB-C phones, tablets, a PS5 controller or similar devices that accept 5 V 3 A charging and benefit from 5 Gbps throughput. Buyers who need higher power delivery, faster transfer speeds or a USB-C to USB-C connection should look at a different cable.

Capacity and headroom

The 5 Gbps link moves roughly 10 GB of media in about 10 seconds, while the 3 A supply can fill a 3700 mAh phone in around 112 minutes when paired with a compatible charger. The braided nylon jacket and aluminium ends survive 10000 bend cycles and 100 N of pull, so daily connect and disconnect use stays well within the tested limits.

Questions about this item

Does my charger need to support QC3.0 for the 3A fast charging to work?

Yes, the cable delivers 18W at 5V/3A only when paired with an OEM or QC3.0 charger and a phone that supports fast charging.

Will this cable work with a USB 2.0 port on an older laptop?

It is backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports, but data speed will be limited to 480Mbps instead of the 5Gbps maximum.

How can I confirm the cable is running at its rated 5Gbps speed after connecting?

Transfer a large file and check that the sustained rate approaches 25 to 40MB/s, which is the practical throughput for USB 3.0.
