In with the new - doesn t always mean out with the old... Have you got a new smartphone with the latest technology - but your laptop and tablet haven t caught up with the times just yet? Don t worry - C2G have a full offering of USB Type-C cables and adapters to ensure connecting new to old is never an issue. This USB 3. 0 (USB 3. 1 Gen 1) USB-C to USB-B cable is the perfect solution for connecting a hard drive, hub, or other device that has a USB B port to a computer, tablet or other device that has a USB Type-C port up to 1 metre away for USB 3. 0 (USB 3. 1 Gen 1) communication. The colour-coded USB Type-C connector allows this cable to be easily identified as a USB 3. 0 (USB 3. 1 Gen 1) cable and differentiated from other cables which may support a different feature set. With its robust design, the USB-C connector can be plugged in and un-plugged up to 10, 000 times; six times more than a standard USB A Connector. Additionally, the USB-C connector is user-friendly and has a symmetrical design which is identical on both sides, which means it does not matter if you plug it in upside-down or right-side-up - it will plug in the first time, every time, whilst preventing damage to the connector port. This cable supports a data rate up to 5Gbps for data transfer and sync with 5 volts and 1 amp of power for device operation and charging.
