Product Features
Technical Overview
Technically, this cable features a USB 2.0 Type A male connector on one end and a USB 2.0 Type C male connector on the other, providing a direct link between legacy USB-A ports and modern USB-C devices. The 22/32 AWG wiring and full shielding ensure stable power delivery and data integrity, minimizing interference and voltage drop over the 1-meter length.
The construction includes multiple durability enhancements: aramid fiber strands increase tensile strength, while the thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) jacket adds flexibility and strain relief. Connectors are molded and nickel-plated to resist corrosion and withstand repeated insertions, backed by testing for over 10,000 bend cycles and 5,000 insertion cycles.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Length, Connector Type on First End, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
