What this cable connects

This Tripp Lite U030-006 cable provides a USB 2.0 Type-A to Mini-B 5-pin link at up to 480 Mbps. The six-foot length suits desktop or bench use where the peripheral sits near the host. Gold-plated contacts and double shielding protect signal integrity. It is built for cameras, phones, PDAs and other legacy gear that still use the Mini-B port.

Who this suits and who it does not

Buyers with Mini-B 5-pin devices on USB 1.1 or 2.0 ports will find a direct, standards-compliant connection. It is not for hardware that uses USB-C, Micro-B or any proprietary connector, nor for applications that demand USB 3.0 or higher throughput. Shorter or longer runs will need a different cable length.

The deciding specification

The connector pair is USB-A male to Mini-B 5-pin male, so the cable only fits ports of that exact shape. Verify the peripheral side before ordering; no adapter is included. The 6 ft length is fixed and cannot be altered.

Questions about this item

Do I need a device with a 5-pin Mini-B port to use this cable?

Yes, this cable has a USB 2.0 Type-A male connector on one end and a 5-pin Mini-B male connector on the other, so the peripheral you connect must provide a matching 5-pin Mini-B port.

Will this cable work with my older USB 1.1 hub?

The cable is compatible with both USB 1.1 and 2.0 ports, so it will function with your older hub at USB 1.1 speeds of 1.5 Mbps.

How can I confirm the cable is delivering the 480 Mbps high-speed rate?

Connect it to a USB 2.0 port and a high-speed device, then check the operating system's device manager or system profiler to verify the connection is enumerated at 480 Mbps.
