USB-A to Micro-B USB 3.0 Charge and Sync Cable MediaRange MRCS239 — 50 cm, 5 Gbps, 5W, Black

MediaRange USB-A to Micro-B USB 3.0 charge and sync cable (MRCS239) is a 50 cm cable designed for reliable charging and high-speed data transfer between USB-A hosts and devices with a Micro-B port. The cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 data rates up to 5 Gbit/s and provides up to 5 W power delivery. Its black jacket and gold-plated connector contacts offer basic protection and consistent electrical contact for everyday use with external hard drives, cameras and compatible mobile devices.

Advantages

The cable supports high-speed transfers up to 5 Gbit/s while also allowing simultaneous charging and data sync, enabling efficient workflows when moving large files or backing up devices. Gold-plated contacts reduce corrosion and improve contact reliability, and the 50 cm length keeps desktop and laptop setups tidy without excess cable slack. Plug & Play compatibility ensures straightforward use with mainstream operating systems without additional drivers.

Suitable for

• Connecting external hard drives and SSD enclosures to a computer for file transfer and backup
• Transferring photos and videos from cameras or action cams with Micro-B ports
• Charging and syncing older smartphones, tablets and accessories that use Micro-USB B
• Short cable runs at workstations, home offices and multimedia setups

How to use

Connect the USB-A end to a host device such as a computer, laptop or USB charger and plug the Micro-B end into the target device. For data transfer, allow the host operating system to recognise the connected device; no additional drivers are required for typical Windows, macOS or Linux systems. For charging, ensure the host or charger can supply appropriate current; the cable supports up to 5 W power delivery. Avoid forcing connectors and insert them in the correct orientation to prevent damage.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short-distance connections and frequent plug/unplug cycles. To preserve connector longevity, avoid bending the cable sharply at the ends and disconnect by pulling the connector body rather than the cable. For higher power charging or longer cable runs, consider cables or adapters rated for greater power delivery or longer lengths.
