Types of Computer Cables

We stock cables for connecting, charging, and transferring data between computers, monitors, printers, and peripherals. The main types:

Power cables and laptop chargers. If your laptop charger has died, bring your laptop in and we’ll match you with the right replacement. Different laptops use different charger connectors and wattages.

Display cables for connecting monitors, TVs, and projectors. HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA, DVI, and USB-C to HDMI adapters. If you’re not sure which one your monitor needs, bring the laptop in and we’ll check the ports.

USB cables in various types. USB-A to USB-B for printers, USB-A to USB-C, USB-C to USB-C. Different lengths for different setups.

Network cables. Ethernet cables for wired internet connections. If your WiFi is unreliable, a wired connection is always faster and more stable.

Audio cables. 3.5mm aux cables, USB audio adapters.

Display Cables Explained

The most confusing part of buying a cable is working out which display connection you need. Here’s a quick guide:

HDMI is the most common. Used by most monitors, TVs, and projectors. If you’re connecting a laptop to a TV or an external monitor, HDMI is usually what you need.

DisplayPort is common on gaming monitors and newer displays. Looks similar to HDMI but with one angled corner. Supports higher refresh rates than HDMI on some setups.

USB-C to HDMI or USB-C to DisplayPort adapters are needed for newer laptops that only have USB-C ports and no dedicated display output. MacBooks, Dell XPS, and many modern thin laptops fall into this category.

VGA is the older blue connector. Still found on some projectors and older monitors. We stock VGA cables and VGA to HDMI adapters for connecting older equipment to newer laptops.

If you’re not sure which cable or adapter you need, bring your laptop and tell us what you’re connecting to. We’ll sort you out.

Data & Power Cables

USB cables are the most commonly needed data cables. We stock:

USB-A to USB-C for connecting phones and newer peripherals to older computers. USB-C to USB-C for connecting between modern devices. USB-A to USB-B (the square connector) for printers and some external drives. USB extension cables for when the cable is too short to reach.

For power, we stock generic laptop power cables (the kettle lead type that goes from the wall to the power brick) and some universal laptop chargers. If your specific charger has died, bring the laptop in and we’ll check what you need.

We also stock power extension leads and surge protectors for home office setups.
