V-TAC Ruby Series gold USB-C cable
V-TAC VT-5342 is a one-metre USB-A to USB-C cable from the Ruby Series. SKU 8499 combines gold-coloured connectors with a matching cotton textile braid. It is intended for USB-C devices that need a connection to a conventional USB-A port on a laptop, desktop computer or compatible charger.
Charging and file synchronisation
The manufacturer specifies a 2.4 A current rating and USB 2.0 compatibility. This cable can charge a connected device and can also synchronise music, pictures and files between a smart device and a computer. Its 1 m length gives useful reach beside a desk, a mains charger or a vehicle charging point without leaving an unnecessarily long cable to manage.
