What this cable connects

This Tripp Lite USB-C to USB-C cable links two USB-C devices with male connectors on both ends. It measures 3 ft (0.9 m) and carries a black flat-profile jacket. The cable supports USB 2.0 data transfer at 0.48 gigabits per second and is compatible with Thunderbolt 3 ports.

Flat design and copper build

The flat construction resists tangling and routes easily along desks or behind equipment. Copper conductors deliver reliable signal integrity for both data and power. Male-to-male terminals plug directly into host and peripheral ports without adapters, and the black finish stays discreet in any setup.

USB 2.0 speed decides the use case

At 0.48 Gbps this cable handles charging, syncing and peripheral connections but not high-bandwidth video or fast storage traffic. Buyers who need 5 Gbps or 10 Gbps throughput for external SSDs or dual 4K displays should choose a USB 3.x or Thunderbolt-rated cable instead.

Questions about this item

What USB standard does the U040-003-C-FL use and what is its maximum data rate?

The cable follows USB 2.0 and tops out at 0.48 Gbps, so it is suited for basic syncing and charging rather than high-speed storage transfers.

What physical space is required to route this 3 ft flat cable?

At 3 ft (0.9 m) long with a low-profile flat design, it fits easily behind desks, along baseboards or through tight cable-management channels without adding bulk.

How do I connect this male-to-male cable correctly?

Plug either USB-C male end into the host and the other into the peripheral; the connectors are reversible, so orientation does not matter.
