Description

C2G 28873 12ft USB-C to USB-A Cable

Overview

The C2G 28873 is a 12-foot black USB 2.0 cable designed to bridge the connectivity gap between USB-C devices and standard USB-A ports. This cable is essential for integrating newer peripherals, such as certain IP cameras or mobile data capture devices, with existing infrastructure that relies on USB-A connections. It ensures reliable data transfer for applications requiring a direct link between a USB-C source and a USB-A host or device.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for USB 2.0 data transfer speeds and is compatible with any device featuring a USB-C port that requires connection to a USB-A port. This includes, but is not limited to, connecting certain models of IP cameras, mobile computers, or other USB-C enabled peripherals to a computer, NVR, or switch with a USB-A port. It supports standard USB 2.0 data rates up to 480 Mbps.

Installation Notes

Ensure the USB-C connector is fully inserted into the USB-C device and the USB-A connector is fully seated in the USB-A port. The 12-foot length provides flexibility for installations where devices are not in immediate proximity. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable to maintain signal integrity and prevent physical damage.
