Overview

The Player One USB3.2 Type-C to Type-A Cable is a 2-metre data lead with a USB Type-C connector at the device end and a USB Type-A connector at the host end. It is rated for USB3.2 at 10Gbps and made from high-quality black braided wire. It connects a USB-C camera or accessory to a computer's Type-A port for fast frame download.

Who It's For

This is a good match if you run a USB-C camera that benefits from full-speed transfer and connect it to a computer with a standard Type-A port.

Key Features & Design

  • 2-metre length: reaches from a camera or accessory on the scope to a computer at the mount or pier.
  • USB3.2 at 10Gbps: supports the higher transfer rate for faster frame download.
  • Type-C to Type-A, braided: a reversible USB-C device end and a standard Type-A host end in durable black braided wire.

Recommended Uses

Fast image download between a USB-C camera and a Type-A computer port during planetary or deep-sky capture, and as a spare in a travel or observatory kit.

Compatibility & Accessory Notes

The cable pairs a USB Type-C device port with a USB Type-A host port and is rated for USB3.2 (10Gbps). It reaches full speed when both the device and host support that rate, and remains backward compatible at lower USB speeds. If you are unsure which cable your camera needs, send us the model and we will confirm before you order.

Good to Know Before You Order

  • Full speed needs matching ports: the 10Gbps rate applies when both the camera and the host port support USB3.2; on slower ports it runs at the lower rate.
  • Type-C to Type-A: one end is USB-C and the other is standard Type-A, so both ports need to match your setup.
  • Fixed 2-metre length: this listing is the 2-metre lead, with no other length option.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to set up?

No — the Type-C end plugs into the device and the Type-A end into the computer; the Type-C connector is reversible.

What is it best used for?

A fast USB3.2 data connection between a USB-C camera or accessory and a Type-A computer port.

What is the difference from the USB2.0 version?

This lead supports USB3.2 at 10Gbps for faster download. A USB2.0 device is served by the Type-C to Type-A USB2.0 cable instead.

Will it fit my setup?

If your device has a USB-C port and your computer a Type-A port, yes. Send us the models and we will check first.

Bottom Line

In short: a 2-metre USB3.2 (10Gbps) Type-C to Type-A lead in durable braided wire, for fast download from a USB-C camera to a Type-A computer port.
