Good Connections 2831-AC010W USB-A to USB-C Cable — 10 Gbit/s, 1 m
USB 3.2 Gen 210 Gbit/s3 A1 m
The Good Connections 2831-AC010W is a 1 m USB-A to USB-C cable with up to 10 Gbit/s (USB 3.2 Gen 2) data transfer and a 3 A current rating (stated in the official product name), made for anyone connecting a USB-C phone, tablet, drive or accessory to a computer, charger, car socket or hub that has USB-A ports.
At 10 Gbit/s a portable NVMe SSD can run at roughly 1,000 MB/s on a 10 Gbit/s port — about twice what a 5 Gbit/s cable allows. Plugged into a 5 Gbit/s or USB 2.0 port it simply runs at that port's speed.
Before you order, check two things: the socket on your device must be USB-C (not Micro-USB or Lightning), and the port you plug into must be USB-A. If both your charger and your device are USB-C, a USB-C to USB-C cable is the better buy because it supports USB Power Delivery.
Before you order: USB-A carries no USB Power Delivery and no video. How fast a device charges depends on the USB-A port or charger you plug into — the cable cannot add watts the port does not supply.
What's in the Box
- 1 × Good Connections USB 3.2 Gen 2 cable, USB-A plug to USB-C plug, 1 m, white
What It Means in Practice
- Length 1 m: the everyday desk length — reaches from a computer or charger to a device on the same desk or bedside table.
- Charging: a 3 A current rating (stated in the official product name) — enough for phones, tablets, earbuds and controllers from a standard USB-A charger or computer port.
- Works with wall chargers, PCs, laptops, car sockets, power banks and USB hubs that have USB-A ports.
- Plug-and-play: no driver needed on Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, Android or iPadOS.
What Will Not Work
- No video: it will not drive a USB-C monitor, portable display or projector — USB-A has no DisplayPort Alt Mode.
- No USB Power Delivery: a USB-C laptop that needs 45–100 W will charge very slowly or not at all from a USB-A port through this cable.
- Not a Thunderbolt or USB4 cable, and it will not turn a USB-A port into a USB-C port for USB-C-only chargers.
- Do not order it by mistake instead of the black 2831-AC010S.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
10 Gbit/s over USB-A is the sweet spot for portable NVMe SSDs on desktops and older laptops that have fast USB-A ports but few USB-C ones. Good Connections uses copper conductors with braid-and-foil shielding, which is what keeps Gen 2 speed stable. If you are pairing it with storage, match the cable to the drive — see our external SSDs.
✓ Buy it if you connect a 10 Gbit/s SSD, enclosure or USB-C device to a USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 port and want full speed.
✕ Skip it if your USB-A ports are only 5 Gbit/s or USB 2.0 and you just charge a phone — a cheaper cable does the same.
→ Also consider For a USB-C laptop or a USB-C charger, a USB-C to USB-C cable with Power Delivery; for drives, match the cable speed to the drive.
