Description

Securely control data transfer and charging with the USB Extension Cable featuring a data/charge sync switch. This 9.5 inch (240mm) USB-A extension cable lets you safely switch between 'Data' and 'Charger' modes to either enable or disable data transmission.

Perfect for protecting your devices at public charging stations, it prevents unauthorized data access by disconnecting data lines when set to 'Charger' mode. It also prevents automatic syncing during charging sessions by toggling data lines off. Compatible with any USB data/sync cable including mini-USB, micro-USB, Apple Lightning, and more.

Features:

  • 9.5 inch (240mm) USB-A extension cable with switch
  • Inline switch to toggle between data transfer ('Data') and charging only mode ('Charger')
  • USB A plug on one end and USB A socket on the other for easy extension and compatibility
  • Enhances privacy and security by disabling data lines when needed
  • Prevents automatic syncing by disabling data lines during charging
  • Works with all standard USB ports and cables

Important: Set the cable switch before plugging in your device to avoid issues with devices detecting disappearing data lines. Note that Apple iPhone 7 and later do not charge with data lines disconnected; iPhone 6 and earlier do.
