Introduction: Upgrade Your Cable, Elevate Your Experience

In a tech-driven world, the humble USB cable plays a crucial role in powering, syncing, and connecting your devices. Whether you’re transferring files, charging your phone, or connecting peripherals, you need a cable that performs consistently and won’t let you down over time.

The UGREEN USB-A 3.0 to USB-C Cable – US287 does more than just connect—it accelerates your workflow, strengthens your charging routine, and gives you the reliability your gadgets demand.

With super-fast 5Gbps transfer speeds, 3A charging support, 2-meter reach, and rugged nickel-plated construction, it’s the kind of daily-use cable that outperforms cheap alternatives and lasts for years.

Now available at Phonex Technologies Kenya, this is one of the most practical and high-performance cables for users across Kenya—from students to professionals and tech enthusiasts.

Why Choose the UGREEN US287?

The UGREEN US287 is built for both speed and endurance. It features USB 3.0 technology, ensuring faster data transfers compared to USB 2.0, and supports safe, efficient charging with compatible power adapters. It’s also universally compatible with all USB-C devices, making it your one-cable solution.

Let’s break down what makes this model stand out.

High-Speed 5Gbps Data Transfer

Unlike USB 2.0 cables limited to 480Mbps, the US287 supports blazing-fast 5Gbps speeds—ideal for:

Transferring movies, large files, or photos from your smartphone to PC
Backing up data from USB-C external hard drives or SSDs
Connecting high-speed USB-C hubs, docking stations, or display adapters
Enhancing productivity for creative professionals and power users

This speed ensures smooth, lag-free data access and minimizes wait times during transfers—whether you’re a video editor or just syncing your phone.

3A Charging Support: Stay Powered Safely

Power up your devices confidently with up to 3A current output. While it’s not USB Power Delivery (PD), the US287 still ensures:

Safe, stable charging for smartphones, tablets, wireless earbuds, and more
Support for Qualcomm Quick Charge (when paired with compatible chargers)
Power pass-through for USB-C hubs or docks

No more slow charging or worrying about overheating cables. The intelligent design helps regulate current delivery, protecting your device’s battery health.

2-Meter Cable: Comfort and Convenience

Too often, standard cables limit movement or force you to stay near a wall socket. With 2 full meters of length, this UGREEN cable provides:

Freedom to charge and use your phone from the bed or couch
Easy connection behind desks or across workstations
Flexibility for home setups, office desks, or travel scenarios

This extended reach makes it one of the most practical choices for students, gamers, professionals, and everyday users.

Nickel-Plated Connectors: Stronger Than the Rest

Durability is essential, and the nickel-plated contacts on the US287 offer:

Increased corrosion resistance
Tighter, more reliable connections
Better conductivity for power and data
Longer lifespan with repeated plug/unplug cycles

Pair that with a robust PVC outer jacket, and you have a cable that can withstand daily use, bending, and travel without wear or failure.
