Can this cable be used for transferring data? I don't need a charger.

Yes, I use it for transferring data to/from "and" charging my smartphone and tablet.

It should be able to transfer most files from a computer, using USB port, to devices that use micro USB port.

No, not really. It's a quality cable, but it is not a fast charge. I have two. I can't use them for my tablet as they don't deliver enough amperage.

I was so wrong! Unfortunately, it is only used to transfer data, not to charge stuff. Was not what I thought it was, so sorry for mis-leading people.

this cable isn't made for direct transfers. and if you are trying to mount a usb drive with it. you most likely need root access and an app called stick mount. then you can mount flash drives and tranfer files that way. other wise hook your individual devices to a computer and do it that way

No, the USB cable is use for data purposes only and is not directly connected to the battery so it can't charge it.

This cable is an extension cable, no AC adapter, and not a hub. It is USB 3 and should be able to charge you phone if you have a single USB connection to your phone. It depends on your phone if it can function at the same time while you are charging it. The main purpose for this cable for me is to extend USB on my main computer across a large room without using wireless.

You won't need that. It has a USB cord. The only limitation is that it requires 2 amps. Some USB chargers only put out .5 amps.

Anna, I have used the cable with success and am not sure you can transfer if the computer has no power. I would not think this could be possible. Do you not have a hook-up you can use without the battery? My laptop has a power cord I can use even with no battery available.

I believe that you can use it in any USB port. It just gonna take the energy from it, no data transfer.

No, the pogo cable is for charging only. Data transfer is via micro USB port.

The cable used to connect to this dock is a 3.0 micro usb. It will still transfer data at 3.0 speed as advertised.

No it's not a standard USB cable. I don't recommend purchasing this product.

Unfortunately i needed this cable for a different application, however theoretically this can be used to transfer between computers.

no, just like previous versions only a port to charge...in this case a lightning connector. You can find some accessories that can transfer data off and on using the lightning connector, but some are unreliable. You have to be careful to get something that is "sanctioned" by Apple.

Not to my knowledge. It is kind of a pain. I purchased for my son and he doesn't care for it. We can't find a cable to transfer to computer. So if anyone out there knows where to get one or has an efficient way to transfer, please advise.

It does not need to be a computer, any usb charger will do. I use my iPad charger most of the time.
