EFB USB-A to USB-C Cable Set — 4 cables: 0.5 / 1 / 2 / 3 m, 60 W, Braided Space Grey
4 cables: 0.5 / 1 / 2 / 3 mUp to 60 W / 3 ATextile braidedGold-plated contacts
The EFB USB-A to USB-C cable set USB-AC-00005 contains four USB-A to USB-C cables in four lengths: 0.5 m, 1 m, 2 m and 3 m. Each cable connects a USB-C phone, tablet, earbuds case or other USB-C device to a charger, computer or car socket with a classic USB-A port. EFB-Elektronik, the German cable maker from Bielefeld, rates it for up to 60 W at 3 A with Quick Charge support, and it carries data at USB 2.0 speed (480 Mbps). The grey textile braid over a PVC jacket, aluminium plug housings and gold-plated contacts are built for daily plugging — EFB states 10,000 mating cycles. With four lengths in one box you cover the power bank, desk, bedside and a far wall socket at once.
Compatibility — check before buying:
USB-A on one end, USB-C on the other. It fits chargers, PCs and car sockets with the rectangular USB-A port; it does not fit a charger or laptop that only has USB-C ports — for that you need a USB-C to USB-C cable such as EFB’s USB-CC range. Data runs at USB 2.0 (480 Mbps), so it is fine for charging, syncing photos and phone backups, but it is slow for large external SSD transfers and it carries no video: it will not connect a USB-C monitor or projector. The 60 W rating is the cable’s limit; the real charging speed is set by your charger and your device. This is a 4-cable set, not a single 3 m cable — the single 3 m cable is USB-AC-00004. Tell us your phone or charger model and we confirm the right cable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use it with a USB-C laptop charger?
Only if the charger has a USB-A port. Most modern laptop chargers have USB-C ports only, and then you need a USB-C to USB-C cable. EFB publishes no USB Power Delivery support for this USB-A cable, so it is not the right choice for charging a laptop.
How fast does it charge my phone?
The cable handles up to 60 W at 3 A, so it will not slow down a normal phone charger. The real speed depends on your charger and phone; with a Quick Charge charger and a compatible phone it charges at the fast rate the two agree on.
Can I transfer files and connect a monitor?
Files yes, at USB 2.0 speed (480 Mbps), which is fine for photos and phone backups. It carries no video, so it cannot connect a USB-C monitor, projector or dock video output.
Which lengths are in the box?
Four cables: 0.5 m, 1 m, 2 m and 3 m. All four have the same specification — 60 W, 3 A, USB 2.0, braided grey.
Singular Expert Insight
We suggest this EFB cable when your chargers, car socket or computer still have USB-A ports and your devices are USB-C: the braided build and aluminium plugs survive bags and car use much better than the thin cable that comes in the box. The four-length set is the best value when you replace all the worn cables in a home or office in one go. For a new charger see our
phone chargers; for more USB-C ports on a laptop see our
docking stations and hubs.
Buyer’s Guide
