USB cable ShiverPeaks BS77142-1.8 USB 3.2 Gen 1 1.8m

The ShiverPeaks BS77142-1.8 USB cable is a 1.8 meter data cable designed for reliable connections between devices with USB-C and Micro-USB B ports. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1) with a maximum theoretical data transfer rate of 5 Gbit/s. The cable is finished in black and uses nickel-plated connector contacts to improve contact durability and resistance to corrosion.

Advantages

This USB cable combines a 1.8 m length with USB 3.2 Gen 1 performance to provide flexible placement and fast data transfers. Nickel-plated connector contacts enhance longevity and ensure consistent signal transmission. The combination of USB-C and Micro-USB B connectors allows direct connections between modern hosts and legacy peripherals without adapters. The black jacket offers a neutral aesthetic that integrates with most devices and workspaces.

Suitable for

• Transferring files between computers, smartphones or tablets and devices with Micro-USB B ports
• Connecting external storage, cameras or other peripherals that use Micro-USB B
• Syncing and charging devices where a USB-C host port and Micro-USB B device port are required
• Workstations and home setups that need a longer, 1.8 m cable for flexible placement

Key specifications

• Connectors: USB C to Micro-USB B
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1)
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 5 Gbit/s (theoretical)
• Cable length: 1.8 m
• Colour: Black
• Connector contacts: Nickel-plated

How to use

Connect the USB-C end to a compatible host device such as a laptop, desktop or charger equipped with a USB-C port. Insert the Micro-USB B connector into the target peripheral, for example an external hard drive, camera or older smartphone. Ensure both connectors are fully seated to establish a stable data link. For best transfer speeds, use devices and ports that support USB 3.2 Gen 1; otherwise the connection will operate at the highest mutually supported speed.

Recommendations

Avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors and disconnect by pulling the connector rather than the cable sheath. For consistent high-speed transfers, connect directly to host ports that support USB 3.2 Gen 1 and minimize the use of passive hubs or long extension cables.
