Full details

Can I use this for video output?

No, this cable is designed for data and power transmission and does not support video signal output.

Troubleshooting

Device is not charging

Verify that the USB-A end is firmly inserted into a powered port and that the port provides sufficient output.

Slow data transfer speeds

Ensure the cable is plugged into a USB 3.0 (blue) or higher port on your computer rather than an older USB 2.0 port.

Connection is intermittent

Check both ports for lint or debris and ensure the connectors are free from damage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reversible USB-C plug reduces wear and tear on ports
  • Reliable 5Gbps bandwidth for fast data sync
  • Generous 1.5m length for flexible workspace arrangements
  • Supports 3A charging for modern mobile devices

Cons

  • Limited by the speed of the host USB-A port
  • Not suitable for high-power demanding devices like docking stations
  • Does not support video output (DisplayPort Alt Mode)

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up, simply insert the USB-A end into your computer or power adapter and the USB-C end into your mobile device. No software or driver installation is required; the cable is plug-and-play. This cable is compatible with virtually all USB-C mobile devices, tablets, and USB-C laptops, provided the host end is a standard Type-A port. To ensure longevity, avoid bending the cable sharply at the connector joints and store it by winding it loosely rather than wrapping it tightly around small objects.
