USB 2.0 Type-A to Type-C cable

The Tripp Lite U038-006 is a 6 ft cable that links a USB Type-C device to a standard USB Type-A port on a charger, laptop or desktop. It suits anyone who needs to connect a modern phone, tablet or peripheral to an older host port for syncing or charging.

Reversible connector with gold-plated contacts

The USB-C plug inserts either way up, removing the frustration of checking orientation in low light. Gold-plated copper contacts and nickel-plated moulded ends resist corrosion, while foil shielding protects the 28 AWG data pair and 20 AWG power pair from interference during daily use.

Limited to USB 2.0 speeds and 1.5 A power

Data moves at up to 480 Mbps, so large file transfers take longer than on faster interfaces. The cable delivers a maximum of 1.5 A for charging and is backward compatible with USB 1.1 hosts, but it cannot support higher power delivery or the bandwidth of newer USB standards.
