FAQs

Will this cable fast charge my phone?

This cable supports fast charging if your phone and your charger also support fast charging. The 24AWG copper core helps facilitate higher power delivery, but all components (cable, charger, and phone) must be compatible.

What type of connector does this cable have?

This cable has a USB Type-A male connector on one end and a Micro-USB B male connector on the other end.

Can I use this cable to transfer files?

Yes, this cable is designed for both charging and data synchronization, allowing you to transfer files between your device and a computer.

How long is the cable?

The cable is 1.2 meters (approximately 3.9 feet) in length.

What does '24AWG Copper Cable' mean?

AWG stands for American Wire Gauge. A lower AWG number, like 24, indicates a thicker wire, which allows for more current to flow, resulting in faster charging.

Is this cable compatible with iPhones?

No, this cable uses a Micro-USB B connector, which is not compatible with iPhones. iPhones use a Lightning connector.

What is the benefit of a shielded cable?

Shielding helps protect the data signal from external electromagnetic interference, leading to a more stable and reliable connection for both charging and data transfer.

Troubleshooting

Device not charging

Ensure both ends of the cable are securely connected. Try a different USB port or power adapter. Verify that the device's charging port is clean and free of debris. Test with a different compatible cable to rule out a cable issue.

Slow charging speed

Confirm you are using a charger that supports fast charging and that the device itself is capable of fast charging. Ensure the cable is fully inserted into both the device and the charger.

Data transfer not working

Check that the cable is fully seated in both the device and the computer's USB port. Try a different USB port on your computer. Ensure your device is set to allow data transfer (often a notification appears on the phone screen when connected).

Cable feels loose at the connection point

Inspect the connectors on both the cable and the device for any visible damage or debris. If the connection remains loose, the cable's connector may be worn, and replacement might be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Connect the Micro-USB B end of the cable to your mobile phone, tablet, or other compatible device.
  2. Connect the USB-A end to a power adapter, USB port on a computer, or a power bank.

Compatibility:

This cable is designed with a Micro-USB B connector, which is standard on many Android smartphones and tablets released in the last decade, as well as some GPS devices and older smartphones. Please verify that your device has a Micro-USB B port before purchasing. The USB-A connector is compatible with standard USB ports found on chargers, computers, and power banks.

Care:

  • Avoid bending the cable sharply, especially near the connectors.
  • Keep the connectors clean by gently wiping them with a dry, soft cloth if necessary.
  • Do not expose the cable to excessive heat or moisture.
  • Store the cable loosely coiled to prevent internal wire damage.
