ACT USB 3.0 10Gbps 60W USB Type-C (straight) to USB Type-C (up/down angled) Cable, 2 meter

ACT AC7472 is a USB 3.0 to USB‑C data and charging cable engineered to provide high-speed data transfer and reliable power delivery between legacy USB‑A/USB 3.0 hosts and modern USB‑C devices. The cable supports a data rate up to 10 Gbps and power delivery up to 60W, enabling fast file transfers and charging for external drives, smartphones, tablets and other USB‑C peripherals. Its construction balances performance and everyday usability for home, office and mobile use.

Advantages

The cable combines USB 3.0 compatibility with USB‑C device support to bridge older hosts and new peripherals without adapters. With up to 10 Gbps throughput it reduces transfer times for large files and backups, while the 60W power capability supports efficient charging and operation of bus‑powered devices. The connector housings and internal wiring are designed to maintain signal integrity and consistent power delivery over typical cable lengths.

Suitable for

• Transferring large files between a computer with USB 3.0 and an external SSD or HDD with USB‑C
• Charging and syncing smartphones and tablets that use USB‑C
• Connecting USB‑C peripherals such as docking stations, hubs or audio interfaces to USB‑A hosts
• Performing backups, media transfers and data synchronization in home and office environments

Key specifications

• Interface: USB 3.0 (USB‑A) to USB‑C
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10 Gbps
• Maximum power delivery: 60W
• Supported functions: data transfer and power/charging
• Typical applications: external storage, mobile devices, peripherals

How to use

Connect the USB‑A end of the cable to a USB 3.0 port on your computer or charger and the USB‑C end to the target device. For optimal performance, use a USB 3.0 or higher port on the host device; lower‑speed ports will limit achievable throughput. Ensure both host and device support the intended power and data profiles before attempting high‑power charging or heavy data transfers. Handle connectors gently and avoid sharp bends in the cable to preserve signal quality and longevity.

Recommendations

For fastest transfers, plug into a true USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 2 port on the host and use devices that support 10 Gbps. When charging devices at higher power levels, verify the host or charger supports 60W delivery and monitor device temperature during prolonged high‑power use. Store the cable coiled loosely to avoid stress on the connectors.
