USB 5V to 2.1mm DC Barrel Plug - Great For Addressable LED Strip Controllers - 20 AWG - 5ft
USB 5V to 2.1mm DC Barrel Plug Cable – 20AWG, 5ft
Reliable 5V DC Power from A USB Port
This USB 5V to 2.1mm DC barrel plug cable makes it easy to power 5V devices—like addressable LED strip controllers, routers, and switches—directly from a standard USB port. Built with 20AWG copper conductors and a thick, durable jacket, it supports up to 5A max for dependable power delivery.
High-Quality 20AWG Copper Construction
The heavy-duty 20AWG copper wire minimizes voltage drop while the robust insulation improves durability and flexibility for everyday and commercial use.
Technical Specifications
- Connectors: USB Type-A Male → 5.5 × 2.1 mm DC Barrel Male
- Length: 5 ft (150 cm)
- Input/Output Voltage: 5 V DC
- Maximum Current (Cable Rating): 5 A
- Wire: 20 AWG copper
- Build: Thick, high-quality cable designed to meet customer needs
Important Power Note
Not all USB ports supply the same current. Actual available amperage depends on the USB port/revision and whether the port supports enhanced charging modes. Always verify your power source’s rating before drawing high current.
Theoretical USB Port Current (Standard Downstream Port)
| USB Revision | Max Current (A) | Typical Notes |
|---|---|---|
| USB 1.0 / 1.1 | 0.5 A (after enumeration) | Default 0.1 A; devices may request up to 0.5 A |
| USB 2.0 | 0.5 A | Standard downstream port |
| USB 3.0 / 3.1 / 3.2 | 0.9 A | Standard downstream port (non-BC, non-PD) |
Some hosts/chargers support higher currents (e.g., Battery Charging 1.2 at ~1.5 A, or USB-C/USB Power Delivery at even higher levels). Check your USB source specifications if your device needs more current.
Applications
- Powering addressable LED strip controllers
- Routers, switches, and other 5 V devices with 2.1 mm jacks
- DIY electronics and test benches
- Upgrading lightweight DC power leads
Built for Commercial Use
Custom-made to meet commercial requirements, this cable pairs 20 AWG copper with rugged construction for consistent, long-term performance.
