USB cable S/CONN 14-13040 0.5m USB A USB C White

The S/CONN 14-13040 0.5m USB A to USB C cable in white by ShiverPeaks is a short USB 2.0 data cable designed for connecting devices with a standard USB A port to those with a USB Type-C port. With a length of 0.5 m it is intended for close-proximity connections such as linking a laptop, desktop or charger to smartphones, tablets, external drives or other USB-C peripherals. The cable supports USB 2.0 communication with a maximum theoretical data transfer rate of 0.48 Gbit/s and provides a compact, reversible USB-C plug for simplified insertion.

Advantages

The cable offers a compact form factor and a short 0.5 m length that reduces clutter and signal attenuation for nearby devices. Compatibility with USB A and USB C connectors ensures straightforward connectivity between legacy USB-A hosts and modern USB-C peripherals. As a USB 2.0 cable it provides sufficient bandwidth for file transfers, device syncing and charging at typical USB 2.0 current levels. The white finish provides a neutral appearance suitable for home and office environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting a computer or charger with USB A port to a phone or tablet with USB C
• Data transfer and device synchronization at USB 2.0 speeds
• Short-distance connections on desks, in docking setups or next to charging adapters
• Use with accessories such as power banks, portable hard drives and USB-C peripherals

Key specifications

• Connector A: USB A (standard rectangular plug)
• Connector B: USB Type-C (reversible plug)
• USB version: USB 2.0
• Maximum data transfer rate: 0.48 Gbit/s (USB 2.0 specification)
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Colour: White

How to use

Insert the USB A plug into the host device’s USB A port (computer, charger, power bank) and insert the USB-C plug into the target device’s USB-C port. Ensure connectors are aligned and fully seated; the reversible USB-C plug can be inserted in either orientation. For data transfer, enable file transfer mode on the connected device if required. For charging, verify that the host provides appropriate power; this cable follows USB 2.0 power characteristics and is suitable for standard charging rates consistent with that specification.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short, convenient connections where a 0.5 m length reduces cable tangling and minimizes excess slack. Avoid excessive bending near the connector ends and do not place heavy objects on the cable to prolong service life. For faster data transfer or higher power delivery needs, consider a cable specified for newer USB versions and higher currents.
