Tripp Lite unveils USB cables with retractable connector
CHICAGO, July 27, 2015
Tripp Lite, a leading manufacturer of power protection and connectivity solutions, has unveiled the USB 2.0 OTG (on-the-go) cables with a two-in-one connector.
A Tripp Lite exclusive, these new cables have a USB-A male connector combined with a retractable Micro-B male connector, said a statement.
The two-in-one connector will offer convenience and application flexibility not previously found in a single cable.
When the Micro-B connector is retracted, the cables act as standard USB cables. When the Micro-B connector is extended, the cables act as OTG cables and connect to OTG-compliant Micro-B devices, it said.
David Posner, product manager, said: “The demand for cables with OTG capability is growing. With our exclusive two-in-one connector, users now have the convenience of a traditional USB cable and the flexibility to connect to an OTG Micro-B device.” - TradeArabia News Service
