The cable comes in a black finish intended to match a wide range of devices and setups.

Advantages

This USB cable provides high-speed data transfer in a single, flexible 1.8 m length that balances reach and manageability. The gold-plated contacts reduce oxidation and help maintain a stable connection over time.

How to use

Connect the USB-C end to a device with a USB-C port and the USB-A end to a host or charger with a USB-A port. Data transfer and charging functionality will depend on the capabilities of the connected devices and ports. For highest transfer speeds, ensure both host and device support USB 3.2 Gen 1. Insert connectors gently and align them correctly to avoid damaging ports. Disconnect by pulling the connector head rather than the cable jacket.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable with USB 3.2 Gen 1–capable ports and compatible devices. Avoid sharp bends and excessive tension along the cable; store it loosely coiled. Keep connectors free of dust and moisture to preserve contact quality. If you require faster standards or higher power delivery, verify device and host specifications before use.
