Cable type and length

This Tripp Lite cable connects a USB-A port to a USB-C port over a six-foot distance. The flat profile helps it lie neatly along desks or behind equipment. It suits anyone linking legacy hosts to newer peripherals.

Flat construction benefit

The flat ribbon design resists tangling and slides under carpet edges or door gaps more easily than round cables. That geometry makes cable routing simpler in tight workspaces.

USB 2.0 data rate

The link operates at the USB 2.0 specification, so bulk transfers move at that ceiling. Buyers who want more bandwidth for external SSDs or high-resolution video should choose a different cable.

Questions about this item

Will the flat USB 2.0 cable need replacement if I upgrade to faster USB devices?

The cable is built to the USB 2.0 specification, so it will not deliver higher speeds even if the host or device supports newer standards.

What limits data throughput when the 6 ft cable runs at full speed for long periods?

The USB 2.0 interface caps the maximum transfer rate, and that electrical limit is reached before any thermal or mechanical constraint appears.

Does the flat design affect heat or power draw when the cable carries continuous current all day?

The flat construction does not change the cable’s power-handling; it simply carries whatever current the USB 2.0 host and device negotiate.
