FAQs

What is the difference between Micro USB B and Mini USB B?

The kenable 003932 cable uses a Micro USB B connector, which is smaller and more common on modern Android devices. Mini USB B connectors are larger and typically found on older cameras, MP3 players, and some external hard drives.

Will this cable fast charge my phone?

This cable supports fast charging if your device and your power adapter are both compatible with a fast charging standard. The cable itself is designed to handle the higher power requirements.

Can I use this cable with my iPhone?

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

What is the maximum data transfer speed?

The cable is rated for USB 2.0 speeds, which allows for data transfer rates of up to 480 Mbps.

How do I clean the connectors?

Use a dry, soft cloth or a cotton swab to gently clean the metal parts of the connectors. Avoid using liquids or abrasive materials.

What does '24AWG' mean for the cable?

AWG stands for American Wire Gauge. A lower AWG number, like 24, indicates a thicker copper wire, which allows for less electrical resistance and therefore faster charging and more efficient power delivery.

Is this cable shielded?

Yes, the cable is shielded to help eliminate interference, ensuring a more stable connection for both charging and data transfer.

Troubleshooting

Device not charging

Ensure the USB A end is securely connected to a working power source and the Micro USB B end is firmly plugged into your device. Try a different power adapter or USB port. Verify your charger is compatible with fast charging if that feature is desired.

Data transfer not working

Confirm the cable is fully inserted into both the device and the computer. Check if your device is set to 'File Transfer' or 'MTP' mode in its USB connection settings. Restart both the device and the computer.

Slow charging speed

Confirm you are using a charger that supports fast charging and that your device is also compatible with that standard. Ensure no other high-demand applications are running on the device while charging.

Cable feels loose

Check for any debris in the device's Micro USB port. If the port itself is damaged, this may require professional repair. Ensure the cable connector is not physically damaged.
