Connection and Compatibility

This six-foot cable bridges devices that still use a 5-pin Mini-B port to modern hosts with a USB-C socket. The reversible Type-C plug removes orientation guesswork during connection. It is suited to legacy cameras, external drives or audio interfaces that rely on the older connector. Builders whose equipment already uses Micro-B, standard-B or native USB-C ports will not need this cable.

Transfer Speed and Shielding

The link operates at USB 2.0 Hi-Speed rates with a quoted data throughput of 60 MB/s. Gold-plated contacts and nickel-plated shells sit inside a fully shielded, moulded jacket built from 28 AWG conductors. Users who require the higher bandwidth of USB 3.x or USB4 for large-file workflows should select a different cable. The RoHS-compliant assembly carries a lifetime manufacturer warranty.

Deciding Specification

The single detail that determines fit is the 5-pin Mini-B male connector on one end paired with a USB-C male connector on the other. If the peripheral presents any other port — Micro-B, standard-B, proprietary or native USB-C — this cable will not mate. Verify the device port before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the 6 ft cable include both the USB-C and 5-pin Mini-B connectors, or must I buy an adapter separately?

The cable has a USB-C male connector on one end and a 5-pin Mini-B male connector on the other, so no separate adapter is required.

How do I decide between different lengths or connector variants of this Tripp Lite model?

This specific model is a 6 ft cable with USB-C to 5-pin Mini-B connectors; other lengths or connector types would carry different model numbers.

What real-world throughput can I expect from the 60 MB/s rating when the cable is plugged into a USB 2.0 port?

The 60 MB/s figure is the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed signalling rate; actual throughput will be lower due to protocol overhead and the host controller.
