What this cable does

The Tripp Lite U322-006 is a 6 ft USB 3.0 Super Speed cable with a Type A male connector on one end and a Type B male connector on the other. It connects peripherals such as printers, scanners or external hard drives to a host computer. The blue connectors identify the USB 3.0 interface. It is built to RoHS environmental standards and carries a lifetime warranty.

Check your ports before ordering

Verify that your computer has a USB Type A port and that your device uses a USB Type B port. Both ports must support USB 3.0 to obtain Super Speed transfer rates; the cable will fall back to USB 2.0 speeds if either side is an older version. The 6 ft length should suit the distance between your equipment.

Thermals noise and power

This is a passive copper cable with no active electronics, so it generates no heat and produces no noise. It draws no external power and adds negligible load to the host USB port. Normal use is limited to the current the host controller supplies over the USB 3.0 connection.

Questions about this item

Does the 6 ft Tripp Lite U322-006 cable ship with any adapters or driver discs, or is it just the cable?

The package contains only the USB 3.0 A Male to B Male cable itself; no adapters, driver discs or additional accessories are included.

Should I choose the 6 ft length or a different size for connecting a printer to a desktop tower?

The 6 ft length suits most desk-to-tower runs; select a shorter cable only if the devices sit closer together, or a longer one if the route requires extra slack.

What does the USB 3.0 rating mean for real-world transfer speeds when I plug this cable into a hard-drive enclosure?

The cable supports the USB 3.0 specification, so actual throughput will depend on the drive, controller and system overhead rather than the cable itself.
