Connect USB-C devices to legacy USB-A ports without replacing existing computers, chargers, docking stations or peripheral connections. The C2G CG28871 provides a male USB-C connector on one end and a male USB-A connector on the other, creating a direct physical connection between the two port types. Its 6 ft length gives more placement flexibility than a short patch cable when the host port is under a desk, behind a display or located on a docking station. USB 2.0 signaling supports data transfers up to 480 Mbps for compatible devices. Use the cable for connecting USB-C phones, tablets, storage devices and other USB-C hardware to USB-A equipped hosts, or for charging a USB-C device from a USB-A charging port. The cable’s connector arrangement matters: it is intended for a USB-C device connection at one end and a USB-A port connection at the other. This cable fits installations that still rely on USB-A infrastructure while adding devices with USB-C ports. It supplies a single, fixed USB-C-to-USB-A connection rather than an adapter plus separate cable, reducing connection points along the run. Select it when the required link is USB 2.0, both ends need male connectors, and 6 ft of reach matches the equipment layout.
