UGREEN USB A to USB C Cable 3A, 3M length

This USB A to USB C cable from UGREEN delivers up to 3A fast charging and stable data transfer for everyday use with phones and tablets. It suits users who need a long 3-metre lead for charging from a desktop or distant wall outlet, and it supports quick charge protocols to fill devices faster according to the manufacturer.

Key Points

The cable supports Quick Charge 3.0/2.0, AFC and Huawei FCP, allowing a maximum charging current of 3A and a power delivery of up to 18W according to the manufacturer. It includes a 56 kΩ resistor in the Type-C connector to help regulate current and protect devices from excessive flow. With a braided nylon outer jacket and aluminium alloy connector shells, the cable is built to resist daily wear and to remain tangle-resistant for regular use. It also handles data transfer at USB 2.0 speeds, which is useful for syncing media and backups between a computer and a device.

Benefits

The extended 3 metre length gives extra freedom to charge devices away from power points, which is convenient in living rooms, bedrooms or offices where sockets are not nearby. The braided nylon sheath provides flexibility while reducing the chance of knots and tangles, and the reinforced connector housings aim to withstand repeated plugging and unplugging. Because it meets common quick charge standards, the cable can reduce time connected to a charger compared with standard low-current cables when paired with a compatible charger and device.

Usage Recommendations

Use this cable for charging and syncing smartphones, tablets and other USB-C devices that accept 3A input. It is practical for wall chargers, power banks and some car chargers that output within the stated limits. Consider pairing it with a Quick Charge 3.0 or compatible charger to benefit from the faster charge rates. Bear in mind that not all devices will draw the full 3A; actual charging speed depends on the device and charger. Also note that the data rate corresponds to USB 2.0 transfer speeds, so large file transfers will be slower than modern USB 3.0 solutions.
