Anyone know what type of connector this is for my Navigator VI. Lost my other lead and need to order new one. Seen a lead with multiple ends on Amazon which would be useful but not clear what ends are.

My Navigator V has a micro USB connector. Yours looks pretty similar if not the same.

Yep, micro USB. But not all will pass data, some are just chargers.

Be careful ordering the lead with multiple ends, they will charge but may not transfer data for updates or routes

Multi head leads also tend to more fragile and error prone in my experience.


It is a Micro USB (technically a Micro B but everyone will call it a micro), for future reference look here [size=78%]https://www.reddit.com/r/coolguides/comments/5zvu1w/i_redrew_the_usb_types_guide/[/size]

Thanks, taken a screen print. Will be useful.

And again for future reference  :)


If you want to keep an image like that, right click on it and select "Save Image", that way you get the best possible version rather than an interpreted version which may have lost detail in the rendering

I know this is an old post but if anyone stumbles upon this, you can also get a reversible micro-usb so it can ne plugged in either way and does not have to have the correct orientation that can be hard to find with the original cables if your eyes are not the best or it is dark.
