Photos show a USB cable. Looks like USB-A to USB-micro or mini. Not mentioned in the contents description. Why? My UV-5 has no USB ports.

Where the mic plugs in is a two prong plug in,that is where you plug in the programing cable. The other end of the programing cord plugs into a USB port on your computer.

You can purchase the USB cable at Baofeng USB Programming Cable for Baofeng Two way Radio UV-5R, BF-888S,BF-F8+ With Driver CD for less than $7.00 and free shipping. I comes from China and it only too about two weeks to receive mine. Hope this helps

There is no USB ports on the rig. There is a USB to MIC/PTT cable for programming but no for the actual function of the rig itself

Hi the UV 5 & the GT-3 programing cable connect the same way. Through the two prong mic/head set port. The other end of the cable has a standard USB connector. I hope this helps. 73 Walter

This radio uses the same cable as all the rest of the Baofeng line-up. No mini-usb cable required.

It should come with a USB cable. There may have been an error in packaging yours.

I'm donating it so it's packed away right now. I seem to recall a cable that had a standard A connector on it. Whatever it was, it didn't meet my needs, and I bought a 2 port front panel USB 3 unit.

08 Nov. 2013. I don't know if it is a standard Mini USB. I do know that the Nikon sourced cables are very well made and, as others have written, at least one "choke" filter (the cylindrical growth next to the cable end). The ends fit well in the devices and where the cable meets the connectors, that area hasn't fallen apart. The real Nikon UC-E4 cable is worth it.

The unit requires a Micro-B connection. I base this on looking at my unit and cable, and comparing to a Google search of images for "usb micro a vs b".

My apologies for taking so long to answer your question. I believe you need a MICRO rather than a MINI usb.

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

Yes, it is USB. I had not noticed that it did not tell us that in the description, which they SHOULD HAVE! (I think, when I purchased it, I just assumed it was USB, and got lucky.)

While I don't know the actual spec model/name for the usb 3.0 cable it looks the same as a micro usb but the micro end is wider with two sets of pins. On Amazon if you search usb 3.0 cable it looks like the first amazon basic cable that comes up.Actually the cable descriptions taught me something. It is type A Male to micro B.

I check in the entire manual and there is no mention of the USB Port Version. Sorry.

When I ordered mine it had the photo with the Mini USB and that's what I received. Think there's something wrong with the photo currently posted???

Marty, I know what a USB is...and it does not connect via USB. The others you mention are not familiar to me, so I'll not comment on those.

it's a micro usb , the unit comes with the usb cable, micro usb to normal usb. you don't need to buy a cable . it should be in the box.

Mine did not include the usb adapter, thus I am returning it. Possibly a packaging oversight, but nonetheless, it was not included.
