Cables Direct USB 3.0 Cable - USB-C to Micro-B - 2m

This cable allows you to connect devices with a USB Type-C port to peripherals that have a USB 3 Type Micro-B port, such as external hard drives, avoiding the need to replace your older devices.

The cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1), offering a maximum data transfer rate of 5 Gigabits per second (5Gbps).

While the cable itself is USB 3.2 Gen 1, it can physically connect to USB 2.0 ports, but the data transfer speed will be limited to USB 2.0 speeds (480Mbps).

Yes, if your phone has a USB 3 Micro-B port and your computer has a USB-C port that supports power output, the cable can be used for charging, supporting up to 3 Amps.

The cable features a male USB Type-C connector on one end and a male USB 3 Type Micro-B connector on the other end.

The cable length is 2 meters.

This specific product is a 2-meter cable with 5Gbps bandwidth. For 1-meter cables from this series, the bandwidth is 10Gbps (Gen 2).

Ensure the cable is securely plugged into both the host device and the peripheral. Try a different USB-C port on your computer and a different USB 3 Micro-B port on the peripheral if available. Test with another compatible cable and device to isolate the issue.

Verify that both the host computer's USB-C port and the peripheral's USB 3 Micro-B port support USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) speeds. Ensure you are not connecting to a USB 2.0 port on either end, as this will significantly limit speed. Close unnecessary background applications on your computer that may be consuming resources.

Confirm that the USB-C port on your computer or laptop is capable of providing power output (charging). Check if the peripheral device is designed to be charged via its USB 3 Micro-B port and requires a specific amperage. This cable supports up to 3 Amps, but the host port must also be capable of delivering it.
