StarTech.com USB 2.0, Male USB Type C to Male USB Type A, Black, 0.5 m

This IC socket USB cable provides a compact link between USB-C hosts and USB-A peripherals for data transfer and device programming. It is intended for short-range connections where a flexible, durable cable is required, and it operates to USB 2.0 signalling standards while meeting environmental substance restrictions.

• USB 2.0 signalling supports standard-speed data exchange
• Male-to-male ends allow direct host-to-device connection
• 0.5m length minimises desk clutter and signal degradation
• Thermoplastic elastomer jacket delivers high-flex durability
• Black jacket reduces visual distraction in test setups
• RoHS conformity limits hazardous substances in materials

• Suitable for IC programming on laboratory benches
• Ideal for connecting USB-C development boards to USB-A tools
• Used with device programmers and diagnostic rigs
• Can be used for short-range data transfer during testing
• Used for electronics testing where substance limits are required

One end uses a USB Type-C plug and the opposite end uses a USB Type-A plug, both in male format.

The outer sheath is a thermoplastic elastomer compound chosen for repeated flexing and handling in bench environments.

The cable conforms to USB 2.0 signalling, intended for full/low/standard-speed data rates rather than SuperSpeed transfers.

There are no hazardous-area certifications for this cable, so it is not rated for explosive atmospheres.
