- cesarb 11y agoA "USB Type-C to USB 2.0 Type-A cable" has 4 wires (same as any USB 2.0 cable, really; only the plug in one end is different). The problem is that this was being sold as a "USB Type-C to USB 3.1 Type-A cable", which is supposed to have 10 wires. (A full USB Type-C cable has some 18 wires, since it wires both sides separately so the alternate modes which use both sides separately can work.)
