USB-A to USB-C Connectivity

Before purchasing, check your device's connector and charging requirements. A USB-A-to-USB-C cable does not provide every charging feature supported by USB-C-to-USB-C cables.
Charging Performance and Compatibility
The cable can charge compatible USB-C devices when connected to an appropriate USB-A power source. The actual charging speed depends on the charger's output, the connected device, and the charging protocol supported by both.
Important specification note: Some retailer listings advertise this cable as supporting up to 100W or 6A. However, Anker's published general guidance for USB-A-to-USB-C cables describes Quick Charge support up to 18W with a compatible charger. The exact A8001 model's maximum output must be verified before advertising 100W or 6A as a confirmed capability.
Data Transfer for Everyday Use
Retailer descriptions list data transfer speeds of up to 480Mbps. If confirmed for the exact cable, this is suitable for basic file transfers and syncing between compatible devices.
Data transfer performance also depends on the connected devices and their USB standards. This listing does not claim USB 3.x speeds or video output support.
Convenient Cable for Everyday Use
A 1-metre cable, as listed by retailers, is convenient for many desk setups and portable charging arrangements. It can be carried in a laptop bag or backpack for use at home, at work, or while travelling.
Handle the cable carefully and avoid excessive pulling, twisting, or sharp bends near the connectors to help maintain its condition over time.
