FAQs:
How does USB cable work?
The USB cable (Universal Serial Bus) is the easy-to-use, standardised connector that allows for the integration of different types of devices with a computer. A USB cable consists of four wires that are used for transferring separately power and data. A USB cable allows for communication between devices in both directions.

What USB cable type describes?
USB cable types can be classified into several transfer speed groups:
• USB 3.1 – the most recent and the fastest available standard of USB
cables. It is capable to transfer up to 10Gbps. Please, bear in mind that USB 3.1 types are not compatible with USB 2.0 or older ports.
• USB 3.0 – these cables are able to work up to 5Gbps and are used in many modern devices that require multiple streams of data. USB 3.0 ports are fully backwards compatible which means USB 2.0 cables will be working with them. However, data transfer speed will be limited up to 2.0 standard.
• USB 2.0 – one of the most popular USB Cable standard that allows for a transfer speed of 480 Mbps. Most of the devices on the market are compatible with this standard.
