USB cable Helos 014691 USB 3.2 Gen 1 5m

The Helos 014691 USB cable is a 5 m data cable designed for USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1) connections. One end of the cable features a standard USB A male connector and the other end a Micro-USB B male connector, allowing direct connection of compatible smartphones, tablets, external drives and other peripherals to hosts with USB A ports. The cable is finished in a blue jacket for easy identification and routing in home or office environments.

Advantages

This USB cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 data transfer rates and is backward compatible with earlier USB standards. The 5 m length provides extended reach for flexible device placement without the need to move host equipment. The combination of USB A to Micro-USB B connectors ensures compatibility with a wide range of existing devices that use Micro-USB B ports. The durable jacket and molded connector housings reduce strain at termination points and help maintain reliable physical and electrical connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting Micro-USB B devices (smartphones, tablets, GPS units) to computers or chargers with USB A ports
• Data syncing between a host PC and Micro-USB B peripherals
• Extending reach for external drives, cameras, or other USB accessories
• Use in home offices, workstations, or multimedia setups where longer cable length is needed

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB A (male)
• Connector 2: Micro-USB B (male)
• USB version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1) compatible
• Cable length: 5 m
• Product colour: Blue

How to use

Insert the USB A male connector into the host device's USB A port and insert the Micro-USB B male connector into the target device's Micro-USB B port. Ensure connectors are aligned correctly before applying gentle pressure. For data transfer, verify that both connected devices are powered on and that drivers or host settings (if required) are configured. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; secure with cable ties if needed to prevent accidental disconnection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable for data transfer and charging within the rated USB 3.2 Gen 1 capabilities and avoid coiling tightly or placing heavy objects on the cable. When connecting older devices, compatibility is subject to the device's supported USB standards; data rate will default to the lowest common USB version between devices.
