SECOMP STANDARD USB 2.0 Cable, Type A to 5-Pin Mini, 3 m (S3143)

In a busy office, a technician reaches behind a printer to connect a legacy device—this 3-meter USB 2.0 cable bridges the gap without strain. Its Type-A male connector plugs into any standard USB host port, while the 5-pin Mini-B male end fits older cameras, MP3 players, external drives, and peripherals that still rely on the mini USB interface. With double shielding and nickel-plated connectors, data transfers remain stable even near other electronics. The PVC jacket withstands daily bending, and the generous length lets you route the cable neatly along desks or walls. Whether you're syncing a handheld scanner, charging a GPS unit, or backing up photos from a point-and-shoot camera, this cable delivers dependable performance.

Good to know

This cable is a passive USB 2.0 cable; it does not require drivers and works with any operating system that supports USB mass storage or standard USB communication. The 5-pin mini connector is not the same as micro USB or USB-C—please verify your device's port before ordering. For best performance, avoid sharp bends near the connectors and keep the cable away from high-heat sources.
