USB-A 3.0 to USB-C Braided Data & Fast Charge Cable, 5Gbps, 0.5m–3m
Our CA40 Series connects a USB-A 3.0 computer, hub or compatible charger directly to USB-C phones, tablets, storage and peripherals. It combines up to 5Gbps USB data with compatible charging up to 5V/3A on supported shorter lengths, wrapped in a durable nylon-braided cable with aluminium connector housings.

5GbpsUSB 3.0 data transfer with compatible devices5V/3ACompatible fast charging on supported setups and shorter lengths
0.5m–3mFour useful lengths for portable, desk and long-reach useBraidedAluminium shell + nylon-braided cable construction
USB 3.0 speed for files, photos and external storage
When connected between compatible USB 3.0 devices, CA40 supports transfer rates up to 5Gbps—well suited to everyday file transfers, backups, photo libraries and USB-C storage. The cable remains backward compatible with lower USB data rates when used with older equipment.
Charge USB-C devices from compatible USB-A power sources
Supported setups can provide up to 5V/3A on shorter cable lengths. Actual charging depends on the USB-A charger or host port, the connected device and the charging protocol both support. The cable does not turn a USB-A charger into USB-C Power Delivery.
Charging note:choose this family when you need USB-A to USB-C data plus conventional compatible fast charging. For USB-C PD 60W/100W/140W/240W charging, use a suitable USB-C to USB-C PD cable instead.
Built for repeated connection
The space-grey aluminium housings, reinforced strain relief and nylon-braided jacket help resist everyday twisting, pulling and repeated packing. The CA40 construction is designed for regular use around laptop bags, office desks, charging stations and vehicle USB ports.
Phones & tablets
Connect compatible USB-C Android phones, iPhone 15/16/17 families, iPads and other USB-C mobile devices to USB-A computers and chargers.
External storage
Use supported USB-C SSDs, flash drives and enclosures with USB-A 3.0 computer ports.
Car connectivity
Suitable for compatible Android Auto/CarPlay data connections where the vehicle provides USB-A and the phone uses USB-C.
Legacy USB-A systems
Keep USB-A laptops, desktops and hubs useful with current USB-C peripherals that support standard USB data.

Frequently asked questions
Is this faster than a USB 2.0 charging cable?
For data, yes—when both connected devices support USB 3.0, it can operate up to 5Gbps rather than 480Mbps.
Can it charge an iPhone with USB-C?
It can charge compatible USB-C iPhones from a compatible USB-A power source, but charging speed is limited by the USB-A source and supported protocols.
Can I use it for a USB-C monitor?
No. This is a USB data/charging cable and does not carry USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode video.
Which length is best?
0.5m is useful for compact connections; 1m for everyday charging/data; 2m and 3m when extra reach is more important.
