Features and Benefits:

• USB2 signalling supports up to high‑speed data transfer
  Male‑to‑male configuration enables direct device‑to‑host links
  USB Type‑C termination allows reversible plug insertion
  Micro USB Type‑B end ensures compatibility with older devices
  Black jacket provides low‑visibility wiring in installations
  CE conformity indicates adherence to applicable EU safety standards

Applications

• Suitable for programming ICs via USB2‑compatible interfaces
  Used with development boards requiring Micro‑B connectivity
  Ideal for connecting USB‑C laptops to Micro‑B peripherals
  Can be used for field service data transfer and diagnostics
  Used for replacing short male‑to‑male USB connections in equipment

Which direction of communication does it support?

It permits bidirectional USB 2.0 data signalling between the two connector types for host and device roles, subject to the host/device roles of the connected hardware.

What connector genders are provided on each end?

Both ends are male
one end presents a USB Type‑C male plug and the opposite end a Micro USB Type‑B male plug.

What certification does the cable hold for electrical conformity?

The cable carries CE certification, indicating it meets relevant European electrical safety and EMC requirements.

Is this suitable for higher‑speed USB standards?

It operates to the USB 2.0 standard and therefore does not support USB 3.x bandwidth or SuperSpeed signalling.
