This cable does the job for the exchange of data but does not support the charge beyond 0.5 mA. This is not a defect, but it is certainly not stated on its card. So for charging small devices that's OK, but to charge a device that consumes some kind of smartphone or tablet, then it does not follow at all.
Too bad, I tried because it was flat and marrangeait for passage of a cable but it does not do the job expected.
