USB A to 2-5mm Barrel Power Cable

Overview

USB Type-A male plug on one end, small DC 2.5 mm coaxial barrel on the other. Taps 5 V from any USB host and presents it as a 2.5 mm barrel for older Nokia-era chargers and similar small devices.

Key Specifications

Construction and Materials

Moulded USB-A plug with strain relief, moulded 2.5 mm barrel on the far end, stranded copper cores, smooth black PVC jacket. Standard USB-A pinout (VBUS / GND).

Typical Applications

Power-tap for legacy Nokia phones, certain router / modem DC inputs, small hobby electronics that ship with a 2.5 mm barrel jack.

Compatibility and Fitment
