15 ft USB 2.0 A to C cable

This StarTech cable connects a USB 2.0 Type-A host to a USB 2.0 Type-C device over a 15 ft length. It supports charging at up to 3 A and data transfer at 480 Mbps. The black TPE jacket provides flexibility for desktop or travel use. It is suited for syncing phones, tablets or peripherals with older USB-A ports.

Best for USB 2.0 charging and sync

Users who need a long cable for charging a USB-C device from a standard USB-A port will find the 4.5 m reach useful. It works for data sync at USB 2.0 speeds. Buyers who require USB 3.x or higher data rates should look at a different cable. The USB 2.0 interface limits throughput to 480 Mbps.

USB 2.0 480 Mbps data rate

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 2.0 rating delivering 480 Mbps. This determines whether the cable can handle the required data speed for the intended device. If the workflow demands faster transfer, this model will not meet that need. The 3 A power capability handles charging for most phones and tablets.
