DeLOCK USB Cable USB 2.0 4m USB A USB C Black 81228

The DeLOCK USB Cable USB 2.0 4m USB A USB C Black 81228 is a 4-metre data cable with a USB A plug at one end and a USB C plug at the other. It supports the USB 2.0 standard with a maximum theoretical data transfer rate of 0.48 Gbit/s and features gold-plated contacts for improved contact reliability. The cable's length and connector types allow connection of devices over longer distances where a USB A host port must interface with a USB C device.

Advantages

The cable combines a standard USB A connector and a modern USB C connector in a single lead, enabling compatibility between legacy hosts and newer devices. Gold-plated contacts reduce the risk of signal degradation and corrosion at the connector interface. With a 4 m length and USB 2.0 specification, it provides extended reach for peripherals and reliable basic data transfer and charging where high-speed USB 3.x rates are not required.

Suitable for

• Connecting a computer or charger with a USB A port to a smartphone, tablet or peripheral with USB C
• Extending the reach of USB connections for printers, external drives (at USB 2.0 speeds), webcams and input devices
• Temporary workstation setups where a longer cable run is needed without active extension hardware

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB A
• Connector 2: USB C
• USB version: USB 2.0 (Full Speed / High Speed up to 0.48 Gbit/s)
• Cable length: 4 m
• Colour: Black
• Contacts: gold-plated

How to use

Insert the USB A plug into a host device such as a desktop computer, laptop or USB charger. Insert the USB C plug into the device to be connected, for example a smartphone, tablet or USB C peripheral. Ensure both connectors are fully seated. The cable supports data transfer and standard USB charging within USB 2.0 power limits. For devices that require higher transfer rates or power delivery beyond USB 2.0 specifications, use a cable and host that support the appropriate USB standard.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid kinking the cable and maintain gentle curves rather than sharp bends. Keep the connectors free of dust and moisture and connect or disconnect by gripping the connector body rather than pulling the cable. Use this USB 2.0 cable for tasks that do not require USB 3.x speeds or advanced power-delivery features.
