Product Information
Full details
The Sandberg USB-C to USB-A cable (1m) is a versatile connectivity solution designed for users who need to charge or sync their USB-C devices using traditional USB-A ports on laptops, wall chargers, or power banks. It is ideal for daily mobile device management, providing both reliable power delivery and stable data transfer. While its 1-meter length is perfect for desktop use or proximity charging, users seeking to charge devices from across a room may find the reach somewhat limiting compared to longer alternatives.

FAQs
Does this cable support fast charging?
The cable supports standard power transfer; however, fast charging speeds depend on both your power adapter's output and your specific device's charging protocol.
Can I use this cable to connect my phone to a car stereo?
Yes, if your car stereo features a USB-A input and supports data transfer via USB, this cable can be used for features like Android Auto or media playback.
Is this cable shielded?
Yes, it is designed to provide stable data and power signals, which includes internal shielding to prevent interference.
What is the USB version of this cable?
This cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (formerly known as USB 3.1 Gen 1), allowing for data rates up to 5 Gbps.
Is the cable reversible?
The USB-C connector is reversible, meaning you can plug it in either way. The USB-A connector must be inserted in the correct orientation.
Troubleshooting
Device is not charging
Ensure both ends of the cable are fully inserted. Verify that the USB-A power source is active and functioning correctly.
Data transfer is slow or interrupted
Try a different USB-A port on your computer, preferably a blue-colored USB 3.0 port, to ensure optimal transfer speeds.
Connection drops frequently
Inspect both the cable connectors and your device port for debris or dust that may be preventing a solid electrical contact.
