Cavo USB S/CONN 13-31045 USB 3.2 Gen 1 3 m USB A USB C nero

The S/CONN 13-31045 USB cable by ShiverPeaks is a 3-metre data cable with USB A to USB C connectors, designed for high-speed data transfer and device connectivity. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1) with a maximum theoretical data rate of 5 Gbit/s. The cable is magnetically shielded to reduce interference and features nickel-plated connector contacts for improved wear resistance. Its black finish offers a neutral, unobtrusive appearance suitable for home and office environments.

Advantages

The cable provides full support for USB 3.2 Gen 1 data rates up to 5 Gbit/s, enabling fast file transfers between compatible devices. Magnetic shielding helps maintain signal integrity in environments with electromagnetic interference. Nickel-plated contacts increase contact durability and reduce corrosion risk over time. The 3 m length delivers extended reach compared with standard short cables, while the USB A to USB C connector pair ensures compatibility with a wide range of existing hosts and modern devices.

Suitable for

• Transferring large files between computers, external drives and smartphones supporting USB 3.2 Gen 1
• Connecting USB C smartphones, tablets or peripherals to USB A ports on laptops and desktops
• Data backup and synchronization tasks where extended cable length is required
• Workspace setups where flexible cable routing or longer reach is needed

How to use

Connect the USB A end of the cable to the host device such as a laptop, desktop or USB hub, and insert the USB C end into the target device such as a smartphone, tablet, external drive or peripheral. For optimal transfer speeds ensure both devices support USB 3.2 Gen 1; otherwise the connection will operate at the highest mutually supported USB version. Avoid sharp bends near the connectors and route the cable to prevent pinching or excessive tension.

Recommendations

Use the cable in dry, indoor environments and avoid exposing it to liquids or extreme temperatures. When connecting devices, plug and unplug by holding the connector housing rather than pulling the cable. If sustained high-speed transfers are required, ensure adequate ventilation around connected devices to prevent overheating. Periodically inspect connector contacts for debris and clean gently if necessary.
