Yes, USB 3 is backwards compatible, as is type C.

that i thought as well but
just build 2 cables and does not work ,with usb 2 connector works.

I would use only a USB 2 connector for USB 2 cables. The colour of the plastic piece is used to see which kind of cable it is.

While cables are backwards-compatible, it is not always straightforward: There are some rules for making adapter cables between Type C and Type A.
Also, if you make a very long cable you may need to use a cable with thicker wires, especially for USB 3.

ok ,thanks for your comments.

C is different because of the amperage C allows will melt the type A connector.
