Product Summary

The Tripp Lite U022-006-BE is a 6 ft USB 2.0 cable with a USB Type-A male connector on one end and a USB Type-B male connector on the other. It supports data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps and features premium foil and braid shielding with gold-plated contacts. The twisted 28/24 AWG conductors ensure reliable signal integrity for high-speed peripherals.

Best Fit

This cable suits anyone connecting a USB-B device such as a printer, scanner or external drive to a standard USB-A port on a computer or hub. It is backward compatible with earlier USB generations for legacy equipment. Buyers who need a USB-C connector, a longer reach than 6 ft, or USB 3.0 data speeds should look at a different cable.

Deciding Spec

The connector combination of USB Type-A male to USB Type-B male is the single specification that determines whether this cable fits your port layout. Verify that your host has a Type-A receptacle and your peripheral has a Type-B receptacle before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Does the cable get warm or draw noticeable power when a USB 2.0 device runs all day?

The cable uses twisted 28/24 AWG conductors and carries only the 2.0 bus power the device requests, so it stays cool during continuous use.

What ports must my computer and peripheral already have for this cable to work?

You need a USB Type-A port on the host and a USB Type-B port on the peripheral; the cable provides the male-to-male connection between them.

Will this beige cable work with my older USB 1.1 printer and a newer USB 2.0 hub?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with earlier USB generations and supports up to 480 Mbps on USB 2.0 ports.
