USB-A to miniUSB data cable, 1.5 m length in white. This cable provides a wired connection between devices with a standard USB-A port and devices that use a miniUSB connector, suitable for data transfer, syncing, charging and firmware updates. The 1.5 metre length balances reach and cable management for desk, travel and home use while preserving typical USB data cable performance characteristics.
Advantages
The cable supports both data transfer and power delivery over a single lead, enabling device syncing and charging without additional adapters. Its miniUSB connector is compatible with a range of older cameras, GPS units and portable electronics that require the miniUSB interface. The 1.5 m length reduces the need for close proximity to a host device while remaining compact enough for storage and transport. The white finish offers a neutral appearance that integrates easily with most setups.

How to use
Connect the USB-A end to a computer, laptop, USB charger or other host with a USB-A port. Insert the miniUSB connector into the target device’s miniUSB port, ensuring correct orientation before applying pressure. Once connected, the host and device should recognise each other for file transfer, firmware operations or charging. For firmware updates and some data operations, follow device-specific prompts on the host or device display.
Usage recommendations
To maintain reliable performance, avoid sharp bends and repeated strain near the connector ends, and disconnect by holding the connector rather than pulling the cable. Use ports on powered hosts or dedicated USB chargers for reliable charging, and follow device manufacturer guidance during firmware updates.
