This cable features both a Type-A connector and a Type-C connector making it the perfect solution for connecting modern mobile devices with a Type-C connector to a PC that doesn't have a Type-C socket, only a standard USB2.0 connection. The new USB Type-C connector is smaller than most of the previous USB-Connectors. (Micro B is the exception.) It is also symmetrical; this allows you to plug the connector in either way up.
