StarTech.com UUSBHAUB6RA 6 ft Micro USB Cable, USB-A to Right-Angle Micro-B, Black

The StarTech.com UUSBHAUB6RA is a 6 ft (1.8 m) USB-A to Micro-B cable with a right-angled Micro USB connector. It connects Micro USB 2.0 devices, such as Android or BlackBerry smartphones, digital cameras, PDAs, tablets and GPS systems, to a USB-capable computer for charging, data synchronization and file transfers. The right-angle plug routes the cable along the side of the device instead of straight out, so you can hold and use a phone or tablet in portrait or landscape while it charges, and it helps in tight spaces such as vehicle mounts or crowded desks. Compatible devices named for this cable include the Kindle Fire and Nexus 10 tablets and the Nexus 5, HTC One, Nokia Lumia 630 and 520, and Sony Xperia M2 and Z1 phones. It also works for charging in the car or from a power bank. The cable supports USB 2.0 at up to 480 Mbps, with connectors rated at 480 Mbps and 2.5 W. It uses 24/30 AWG conductors, aluminum-Mylar foil with braided shielding and molded connectors with strain relief, and it is rated for operation from -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). StarTech.com also offers a left-angle version (UUSBHAUB6LA) for devices whose port orientation calls for the opposite direction. The UUSBHAUB6RA is backed by StarTech.com's lifetime warranty, and a datasheet is available from the manufacturer.
