V-TAC VT-5342 from the Ruby Series is a red, one-metre cable for charging and data synchronisation. It has a full-size male USB-A plug at one end and a male USB-C plug at the other. Cotton fabric braiding covers the cable, while the red connector housings meet black strain-relief sections at the points most exposed to bending.
Which ports this cable connects
The USB-A plug fits the familiar rectangular port on a charger, computer, power bank or other source device. The USB-C plug connects to a phone, tablet or another device with the corresponding socket. This is a USB-A to USB-C arrangement, not USB-C to USB-C, so both ports should be checked before purchase. The symmetrical USB-C plug can be inserted into its socket in either orientation.
The 1 m length can be compared directly with the distance between the power source or computer and the connected device. The sold item is one cable. Product weight is 0.039 kg, so this figure describes the cable itself rather than its retail or shipping packaging.
Charging up to 2.4A and carrying data
The manufacturer specifies a maximum current of 2.4A. Actual charging current also depends on the USB-A port, charger and electronics in the connected device, so every part of the connection must support the required level. The 2.4A figure describes current rather than power expressed in watts.
The cable also supports data synchronisation, including files, photographs and music, between a USB-C device and a computer equipped with USB-A. This wired connection allows those items to be moved without relying on wireless transfer.
Ruby Series braid and finish
V-TAC’s official catalogue assigns SKU 8631 and model VT-5342 to the Ruby Series. The red cable has a smooth cotton-fabric braid, and the manufacturer describes the connector interface as copper plated. Shaped connector ends reduce sharp bending immediately beside the plug housings. The exact EAN variant carries a two-year warranty.
