Technical Overview
The cable utilizes USB 2.0 technology, offering data transfer speeds suitable for syncing files, charging devices, and connecting peripherals. The connectors are precisely molded with male USB Type A on one end and male Micro-USB Type B on the other, ensuring a secure fit with standard ports. The left-angled design on the Micro-USB end helps reduce cable bend and potential port damage, enhancing longevity in frequently used setups.
With a length of 6 feet (1.83 meters), this cable provides ample reach for flexible placement of devices, whether on a desk, in a vehicle, or across a room. The construction is robust, with an approximate weight of 8 ounces (226.80 grams), balancing durability with manageable handling. It is not TAA compliant, which may be a consideration for specific government procurement scenarios.
Key Product Advantages
This cable combines practical design with reliable performance, offering distinct benefits for users needing Micro-USB connectivity. The left-angled connector is a standout feature, allowing easier access in confined areas and reducing stress on the port, which can help prevent wear over time. Its hot-pluggable capability means you can connect and disconnect devices without powering down, streamlining workflow and device management.

Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is ideal for environments where Micro-USB connections are still in use, such as with older smartphones, tablets, MP3 players, or certain peripherals. In office settings, it can connect devices like external hard drives, keyboards, or chargers to PCs or notebooks, facilitating data sync and power delivery. The 6-foot length offers flexibility for setups where devices are not immediately adjacent, such as in home offices, workshops, or entertainment centers.
For mobile professionals, the left-angled connector is particularly useful in vehicles or travel bags, where space is limited and cables may be subject to frequent movement. It also serves well in retail or point-of-sale systems, connecting barcode scanners or card readers to terminals without bulky straight connectors interfering with other equipment.
Office and Home Office
Connect printers, scanners, or charging stations to computers, with the angled connector saving desk space and reducing clutter around USB ports.
Mobile and Travel
Use with power banks, car chargers, or portable devices, where the angled design prevents cable snags and eases connection in tight compartments.
Physical Profile
The cable has a sleek black finish, blending discreetly with most electronics and office environments. Measuring 6 feet (1.83 meters) in length, it provides sufficient reach for flexible placement without excessive slack. The approximate weight of 8 ounces (226.80 grams) ensures it is lightweight enough for portable use while maintaining a sturdy feel that resists tangling. The left-angled Micro-USB connector is ergonomically designed to fit snugly against devices, optimizing space and reducing visual obstruction.
