USB-C to USB-A adapter cable

The Tripp Lite U428-06N-F is a six-inch adapter cable that connects a USB Type-C male plug to a USB Type-A female port. It supports USB 3.1 Gen 1 data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps and delivers power output up to 3A for charging. The reversible USB-C connector ensures quick, fumble-free insertion every time. Nickel and gold-plated contacts provide reliable conductivity across the connection.

Suits users adding legacy USB-A peripherals

This cable suits anyone needing to attach a standard USB-A device such as a flash drive, mouse or charging cable to a newer USB-C laptop, tablet or phone. The short 6-inch length keeps clutter low at a desk or in a bag. Buyers who need a longer reach between devices or a direct USB-C to USB-C link should look at a different cable.

Deciding specification: USB 3.1 Gen 1 at 5 Gbps

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 3.1 Gen 1 rating with a 5 Gbps maximum data rate. If the connected host and peripheral both operate at this speed the adapter will not bottleneck transfers. If either side requires the higher throughput of USB 3.1 Gen 2 or USB 3.2 this adapter will limit performance to 5 Gbps.

Questions about this item

Do I need a device with a USB-C port to use this 6 in cable?

Yes, the USB-C male plug connects to a host or peripheral that has a USB-C receptacle.

Will my existing USB 3.0 Type-A flash drive work at 5 Gbps through the Type-A female port?

The cable uses the same Type-A female connector as USB 3.0 devices and supports USB 3.1 Gen 1 speeds up to 5 Gbps.

How can I confirm the adapter is delivering up to 3A for fast charging after I plug it in?

A connected smartphone or tablet should show its fast-charge indicator, and data transfers with a USB 3.0 drive will reach 5 Gbps.
