    It was extremely easy to determine if a cable carried data. If there were four wires/metal strips at the end it had data. If it was only the two fat ones it was power only.

      Nah, I just checked the USB Micro B cable that came with an older handsfree, all strips present but doesn’t carry data. So no standard.
