StarTech Apple Dock Connector and Micro-USB to USB Combo Cable Review

Posted By Francis Rey on Dec 23, 2012 | 0 comments

If you want to synchronize Micro-USB, iPhone, iPod or iPad devices using one cable, the Apple Dock Connector and Micro-USB to USB Combo Cable provides a basic but dependable answer to connect Micro-USB or iOS-powered mobile digital devices to a laptop or desktop computer for synchronization or charging the battery.

For battery charging and data synchronization between the computer and an iPhone, iPad, iPod or Micro-USB device, the 0.65-meter black cable helps with its combined Micro-USB connector and Dock Connector on an end and a standard USB male connector on the other to connect directly (or through a dock) to a computer’s USB port. For charging devices only, attach the cable to a USB power adapter and plug into a wall outlet.

The cable’s left connector ends on a 4-pin USB Type A male connector, while the right connector either ends on an Apple Dock male connector or a Micro-USB Type B male connector.

Supported by StarTech’s lifetime warranty and made from PVC jacket material, the USB Cable’s design and construction focuses on maximum durability to make it a reliable substitute for broken or lost data sync cables. It also complies with RoHS and Apple MFi standards.

The Apple Dock Connector and Micro-USB to USB Combo Cable is fully compatible with all generations and versions of iOS devices – iPods, iPhones, iPads – and Micro-USB devices. It can charge these devices anywhere from a computer, USB wall charger, or vehicle USB charger. It is suitable for repeated connections or disconnections to or from iPhone, iPod or iPad and Micro USB devices.

The cable is now available for sale on several online retailers. Amazon currently sells the Apple Dock Connector and Micro-USB to USB Combo Cable for $18.99 USD.
