USB 3.2 Gen1 cable EFB Elektronik EBUSBC-USBC5GAK 5 Gbit/s 3 A 0.5 m

This EFB Elektronik EBUSBC-USBC5GAK USB 3.2 Gen1 cable is a 0.5 m USB‑C to USB‑C data and charging cable that supports data transfer rates up to 5 Gbit/s and charging current up to 3 A. Designed for short-distance connections between modern laptops, smartphones and peripherals, the cable enables fast file transfers and stable charging in everyday use and compact setups.

Advantages

The cable combines USB 3.2 Gen1 data performance with USB‑C reversible connectors, allowing straightforward plug-in on both ends. With a compact 0.5 m length it minimises cable clutter on desks and in travel bags while keeping transfer speeds up to 5 Gbit/s and a charging current rating of 3 A for reliable device charging. Its design is intended for compatibility with a wide range of USB‑C devices for both data and power delivery within the specified limits.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops to external SSDs or docking stations for fast file transfer
• Syncing and transferring data between smartphones and computers
• Powering or charging USB‑C devices that accept up to 3 A input current
• Short, tidy desktop and travel setups where a 0.5 m cable is preferred

Key specifications

• Interface: USB Type‑C to USB Type‑C
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen1 (5 Gbit/s)
• Maximum data transfer speed: 5 Gbit/s
• Maximum charging current: 3 A
• Length: 0.5 m

How to use

Connect one USB‑C plug to the host device (for example a laptop or charger) and the other USB‑C plug to the peripheral device (for example a smartphone, external drive or docking station). Ensure both devices support USB‑C connections and that the required functions (data transfer or charging) are enabled on each device. For optimal results, use the cable for short-distance connections and avoid placing strain on the connectors during use.

Recommendations

Use this cable for everyday data transfers and charging within the specified 5 Gbit/s and 3 A limits. For higher power delivery or alternate modes (such as video over USB‑C) verify that both connected devices explicitly support those features and consider a cable rated for the higher requirements if needed.
