One cable for office and creative peripherals
Use the CA16 Series with compatible printers, scanners, fax machines, MIDI keyboards, digital pianos, guitar amplifiers, DACs, DJ controllers and other equipment fitted with the familiar square USB 2.0 Type-B device port.
Printers & scanners
Connect USB-C laptops and tablets directly to compatible Canon, HP, Epson, Brother and other USB-B equipment.
MIDI & digital pianos
Suitable for supported Yamaha, Casio and other musical instruments that communicate with a computer through USB-B.
Audio equipment

Fast and predictable USB 2.0 data
Up to 480Mbps transfer speed supports printing, scanning, device control and compatible MIDI/audio data. It is backward compatible with lower USB data rates where the connected equipment requires them. Performance is limited by the slowest device in the connection.
Check the USB-B port carefully
- The peripheral end is the traditional square USB 2.0 Type-B connector.
- It is not compatible with the physically different USB 3.0 Type-B connector.
- The host end is USB-C, not USB-A.
- This is a data/peripheral cable, not a USB-C display cable.
- Your peripheral may require its own driver or software even though the cable itself is plug-and-play.
Designed for daily desk and studio use
Aluminium connector housings, a braided jacket and internal shielding support repeated setup and dependable signal transmission around computers, printers and audio equipment. The reversible USB-C host connector also makes insertion easier around compact laptops and tablets.
