Pinch the sides on the USB type A plugs to insert them; they lock in place to prevent the cord from detaching. These cords have braided and foil shielding, which reduces signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. They are backward compatible, so they work with cords and connectors that meet the same or lower USB standard.

A plug × A plug cords lock on both ends.

A plug × B plug cords lock only on the type A plug end.
