Overview
UGREEN 50445 is a 1 m passive cable for connecting a USB-C computer host to an older peripheral with a 5-pin Mini-USB Type-B socket. It supports ordinary USB 2.0 data up to 480Mbps and charging up to 2A where the connected device accepts it. The USB-C plug changes the host-side connector only; it does not add USB-C PD, display output or Thunderbolt-speed transport to Mini-B.

Features
What it does well.
Key features
Passive point-to-point design. Passive male-to-male cable; documented Type-C host to Mini-B device direction only
USB 2.0 data. Up to 480Mbps USB 2.0
Device-controlled charging. Up to 5V/2A where supported; no USB PD, no high-wattage USB-C charging and no guaranteed QC mode
Construction.
Use scenarios
Nearby charging. Connect a USB-C laptop or desktop to an older Mini-B camera after confirming the camera’s data mode
Data and media. Sync a compatible Mini-B GPS, audio player, recorder or storage device from a USB-C computer
Accessory link. Supply ordinary USB power from a compatible USB-C host/charger to a Mini-B peripheral within its own charging rules
Replacement planning. Replace a USB-A lead when the host now offers USB-C, without adding a separate adapter
A matching plug is necessary but not sufficient; the peripheral must implement the requested function.
Setup and usability guidance
Inspect: compare the port with the image and device manual.
Connect roles: USB-C male computer/host end → Mini-USB Type-B 5-pin male peripheral end.
Insert straight: never rock, twist or force a keyed legacy plug.
Select mode: a camera or phone may need PC, MTP or file-transfer mode.
Test separately: charging alone does not prove that data is available.
Route safely: keep dry, use broad bends and support cable weight.
Compatible devices and systems
Use the USB-C end with a computer or other documented USB host port and the Mini-B end with a compatible peripheral. Standard USB devices can work under Windows, macOS, Linux or ChromeOS without a cable driver, while the device may need its own driver or file-transfer mode. UGREEN’s official direction note says Type-C to Mini only and specifically does not promise camera-to-phone file transfer.
Host/source. USB-C male computer/host end
Peripheral. Mini-USB Type-B 5-pin male peripheral end
Software. The cable has none. A camera, controller, GPS or other device can still need its own driver, firmware or app.
Function. Check whether the device port supports data, charging or both; some legacy ports are service- or power-only.
What this product does
Provides one 1m USB-C male to 5-pin Mini-B male path.
Passes USB 2.0 data up to 480Mbps between a USB-C host and a Mini-B peripheral.
Passes up to 5V/2A charging where the host/charger and Mini-B device support it.
Works as a simple cable without a separate driver, repeater or auxiliary power supply.
What this product does not do
It does not support reverse device-role use documented as Mini-B source to USB-C device, and UGREEN does not support camera-to-phone file transfer for this cable.
It is not Micro-USB, USB-C-to-USB-C, Mini HDMI, Micro HDMI or a full-size printer USB-B cable.
It does not provide USB PD, 18W/60W/100W USB-C charging, DisplayPort Alt Mode, HDMI video or Thunderbolt 40Gbps.
It is not an OTG adapter or active protocol converter and cannot turn a peripheral into a USB host.
It cannot make a Mini-B port support a function absent from the device firmware.
What to do
Confirm before ordering. Use this SKU, length, connector images and device manual—not only a marketplace device list.
Choose the shortest suitable run. Measure around obstacles and leave slack without excess cable.
Protect the socket. Grip the molded housing, support cable weight and replace a lead that no longer fits firmly.
Use approved power. There is no external-power input. The USB-C source supplies ordinary USB power and the receiving Mini-B device determines what it accepts, up to the listed 2A ceiling. A USB-C charger can physically fit the host end, but the Mini-B device still cannot negotiate USB PD through this cable.
What not to do
Do not force a near-match. Mini-B, Micro-B, USB-C and HDMI plugs differ. Stop if alignment or insertion resistance is wrong.
Do not join two hosts. This is not a host-to-host bridge; two powered host ports can risk damage.
Do not stack cables. No supported daisy-chain count is published; extra junctions reduce signal and power margin.
Do not trust legacy names. Live family art shows cameras, action cameras, GPS units and storage as categories. Compatibility is still connector- and device-specific. Reject any assumption based only on a device name, a Thunderbolt logo beside a USB-C-shaped port or the fact that a phone has USB-C.
Warnings and limitations
Speed: 480Mbps is the USB 2.0 signalling ceiling, not guaranteed file-copy throughput.
Charging: Up to 5V/2A where supported; no USB PD, no high-wattage USB-C charging and no guaranteed QC mode
Roles: use the documented host/charger-to-peripheral arrangement; this is not OTG or a peer bridge.
No native display video: no HDMI, DisplayPort or USB-C Alt Mode.
Condition: replace bent, loose, corroded, wet, frayed or unusually hot connections.

FAQs
Questions buyers ask.
Which end connects to the computer?
The USB-C male end connects to the computer/host; the 5-pin Mini-B male end connects to the peripheral. UGREEN documents this Type-C-to-Mini direction and does not support reverse-use assumptions.
Can I transfer camera files directly to a USB-C phone?
UGREEN’s official guidance for this model says camera-to-phone file transfer is not supported. Use a computer host or a camera/card-reader workflow explicitly approved for the phone.
Is it active or passive?
Passive. It has no repeater, conversion electronics or auxiliary-power socket. It carries the mutually supported USB 2.0 connection between a USB-C host and Mini-B device.
What is the data-speed ceiling?
Up to 480Mbps USB 2.0. The USB-C connector does not imply 5Gbps, 10Gbps, USB4 or Thunderbolt data rates; the Mini-B USB 2.0 link and connected device set the ceiling.
How much charging does it support?
Up to 5V/2A where the source and Mini-B device permit it. That is a ceiling, not a fixed output. Some Mini-B devices charge only in a particular state or from a charger with expected legacy signalling.
Does it support USB Power Delivery?
No. USB-C PD requires compatible negotiation and hardware throughout the chain. This legacy Mini-B cable is not a PD cable and does not provide modern high-wattage charging.
Can it carry display video or Thunderbolt?
No native display or Thunderbolt transport is specified. It may plug into a USB-C-shaped Thunderbolt host port for ordinary backward-compatible USB 2.0 use, but it is not a 40Gbps Thunderbolt or video cable.
How can I tell Mini-B from Micro-USB?
Mini-B is the thicker trapezoidal 5-pin plug shown in this product image. Micro-USB is flatter and asymmetrical; USB-C is rounded and reversible. Do not force a near-match.
Can data and charging work at the same time?
They can when the Mini-B device implements both functions concurrently. The cable carries both, but device firmware can expose data only, charging only or a selectable USB mode.
Can I extend it with another cable?
No supported chain count is published. Extra adapters or extensions add signal loss, voltage drop and connector uncertainty. Use the single 1m cable and test the actual workload.
What if the device is not recognized?
Confirm the USB-C port supports host data, verify the peripheral really uses Mini-B, enable its PC/USB mode, try another host port, remove hubs, inspect both plugs and test the peripheral with a known-good original cable.
