How Fast Is USB A To USB-C?

The speed of a USB-A to USB-C cable, in terms of data transfer and charging, depends on the specific USB standards supported by the cable and the devices it's connected to. Here are some common scenarios:

USB 2.0: If the cable is USB 2.0 compliant, it can support data transfer speeds of up to 480 Mbps. Charging speed can vary depending on the power output of the charger and the capabilities of the device, but it typically provides slower charging compared to USB 3.0 or higher cables.

USB 3.0 (USB 3.1 Gen 1): USB-A to USB-C cables that support USB 3.0 (also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1) can offer data transfer speeds of up to 5 Gbps. These cables can also provide faster charging compared to USB 2.0 cables, especially if the connected devices support faster charging standards.

USB 3.1 and USB 3.2: Some USB-A to USB-C cables support higher USB 3.1 or USB 3.2 standards, which can provide even faster data transfer speeds, up to 10 Gbps or 20 Gbps, respectively. These cables may also support higher power delivery for faster charging.
