Right-Angle USB-C to USB-A Cable

The Tripp Lite U428-003-CRA connects a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 device to a standard USB-A port on a computer, wall charger or car charger. Its right-angle USB-C plug is designed for easier insertion in confined or hard-to-reach spaces. The male-to-male cable measures 3 ft in length and uses copper conductors.

Sustained 5 Gbps Data Transfer

Rated for USB 3.1 Gen 1 speeds, the cable maintains 5000 megabits per second throughput during extended file transfers or backups rather than only in short bursts. The copper construction supports consistent signal integrity over the full 3 ft run. Thunderbolt 3 compatibility ensures reliable performance with compatible host controllers and peripherals.

3 ft Right-Angle Connector Clearance

The 3 ft length combined with the right-angle USB-C plug determines whether the cable fits your specific installation without strain on the port. Buyers needing a longer reach or a straight connector will find this model unsuitable for their layout.

Questions about this item

Does the right-angle USB-C plug run warm or draw extra power when the cable is used all day?

The cable is a passive copper assembly rated for 5000 megabits per second and does not contain active electronics, so it generates no measurable heat and adds no power draw beyond what the connected devices negotiate.

What ports must my devices already provide for this U428-003-CRA cable to work?

One side needs a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port and the other side needs a standard USB-A receptacle; both connectors on the cable are male, so the host and peripheral must supply the matching female ports.

Will the 3 ft length and right-angle connector fit alongside older USB-A hubs or chargers without blocking adjacent ports?

The right-angle USB-C plug sits flush against the device, and the short 3 ft run keeps slack minimal, so it typically clears neighbouring ports on legacy USB-A hubs, chargers or laptop docks.
