Overview

The Sony VMC14UMB is a spare or replacement USB cable designed for Sony Cyber-shot digital cameras and other Sony devices that use a Mini USB Type-B port. At 1.4 meters in length, it provides a practical reach for connecting your camera to a laptop or desktop computer for photo transfers, firmware updates, or trickle charging. As a genuine Sony accessory, it is manufactured to match the electrical and physical specifications of the original cable that shipped with compatible devices, ensuring a secure fit and reliable data connection.

While the Mini USB Type-B connector has become less common in newer electronics — replaced by Micro USB and USB-C in most modern devices — it remains the correct interface for many older Sony cameras. If you have lost or damaged your original cable, the VMC14UMB is a direct replacement that avoids the guesswork of sorting through generic third-party options. It is a simple, purpose-built accessory that keeps your compatible Sony hardware connected and functional.
