Hama Oplaad-/gegevenskabel Extreme USB-A - USB-C 1.5 M Black/Red

Hama Oplaad-/gegevenskabel Extreme USB-A - USB-C 1.5 M Black/Red | Charge and transfer with a USB-A connection

A cable that ends in the wrong connector can bring a simple charge or file transfer to a halt. This Hama cable has a USB-A plug at one end and USB-C at the other, so it’s for setups where those are the two connections you need. It supports charging and data transfer, making it handy for everyday use with a USB-C device and a USB-A connection. At 1.5 metres, it gives you some room to place the connected device rather than keeping it right beside the USB-A port. That extra reach is useful at a desk or when the nearest connection isn’t immediately next to where you’re working. The finish is listed as black. It’s a straightforward cable, and its value comes down to a simple point: the two ends need to match the ports in your setup.

Choosing the right connection

Before choosing a cable, look at both ends of the connection you want to make. This one joins USB-A to USB-C; it isn’t a cable with USB-C plugs at both ends. That distinction matters when you’re matching it to a charging point or a device, because the port shape determines whether the plugs can connect. The cable is described for both charging and data, so it can serve either purpose when the connected equipment supports the relevant use. No transfer speed or charging rate is stated here, so it’s best to choose it for the connection type and length you need, rather than for a particular performance figure. For a replacement cable or an additional one to keep near your everyday setup, the 1.5-metre length gives you a little flexibility without changing the connection type. In short, it’s a practical pick when USB-A is available at one end and USB-C is needed at the other.
