UGREEN US370 1 m USB-C to USB-B 2.0 Printer Cable, 480 Mbps, Braided (80805)

Overview

The UGREEN US370 (80805) is a 1 m braided USB 2.0 cable with a USB-C plug for the computer and a square USB-B plug for the device. It connects a modern USB-C laptop straight to printers, scanners, multifunction devices, label printers, MIDI keyboards, digital pianos, DACs and audio interfaces that use the familiar USB-B socket, with no USB-A adapter in between.

Is it right for you?

• USB-C Windows, macOS, Linux or ChromeOS computers: compatible, provided the USB-C port supports USB data and the peripheral supports the operating system.
• Printers, scanners and multifunction devices with USB-B 2.0: compatible. Install the maker’s driver or app when required.
• MIDI keyboards, digital pianos, DACs and USB audio interfaces: compatible when the device supports USB-B 2.0 and the operating system, with its driver and power needs met.
• USB-C iPad, iPhone, Android phone or tablet: conditional. The mobile operating system, app and peripheral must support direct wired USB operation, and extra device power may be required.
• USB 3.0 Type-B devices: not compatible. The taller two-part socket on some drives and docks needs a different cable. Mini-USB, Micro-USB, USB-A and USB-C peripheral ports also need their own cable.

Key features

• USB-C male to USB Type-B 2.0 male.

• High-density nylon braid over the inner jacket, with tinned copper conductors.
• Aluminium foil and metal-winding shielding.
• Nickel-plated contacts and aluminium alloy housings, in space grey with black braid.
