From the manufacturer

Connect a USB Type-A Device to a USB Type-C Device

Tripp Lite’s U428-003 USB 3.1 Gen 1 cable connects the USB Type-C port on your smartphone, tablet, Ultrabook or computer to a device with a USB Type-A port. It works right out of the package with no software or drivers to download or install. And it’s compatible with all Type-A and USB-C devices.

Typical Applications

  • Transfer data from your USB-C Ultrabook to a USB-A computer.
  • Transfer photos from a USB-C tablet to an external hard drive with a USB-A port.
  • Charge your USB-C smartphone via your desktop’s USB-A port.

Fast Data Transfer and Charging Speeds and Innovative Reversible Plug

The 3-foot U428-003 supports data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps. It also provides power output up to 3A, which is more than sufficient for charging mobile devices in a hurry. It’s backward compatible with USB 3.0 devices.

Unlike traditional USB cables that can be attached only one way, the reversible USB-C male connector plugs into a USB port in either direction for a fast, fumble-free connection every time.

Superior Construction and Lifetime Warranty

The U428-003’s superior foil shielding provides reliable, error-free data communication. Nickel-plated molded end connectors and gold-plated copper contacts ensure superior conductivity and long life. The connector’s slim form supports evolving design trends toward smaller devices.

The U428-003 comes with a limited lifetime warranty. It’s manufactured in compliance with strict RoHS specifications, reflecting Tripp Lite’s commitment to environmental responsibility.

    I love the Tripp Lite USB cables - they are one of the few USB cables that label the ends with their trademark, so I know these are the good cables even if one got mixed into a box of other cables.

    In shopping for USB 3.1 Gen 2 cables, it seems these are only available in 3-foot lengths. The otherwise similar Tripp Lite 6-foot cable that I bought was only USB 3.1 Gen 1 (i.e. same as USB 3.0, I believe).

    Tripp Lite simply overcharges for its product. There is nothing wrong with it; however, Monoprice versions are as good and much less costly to buy.

    2.0 out of 5 stars TRIPP LITE USB 3.1 USB Type-C to USB Type A Cable is not spec compliant. May cause damage to charger, hub or PC USB ports
    Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2016
    Style: 3 ft. USB 3.1 Gen 1 Cable (M/M)Verified Purchase
    Benson again continuing my reviews of USB Type-C legacy cables. This time, I'm reviewing TRIPP LITE 3' USB 3.1 Gen 1 5 Gbps Cable USB Type-C USB-C to USB Type A.

    This cable does not correctly follow the USB Type C specification Release 1.1. To find the specification, please go to usb.org, and look under developers/usbtypec.

    Specifically, using this charging cable, the Chromebook Pixel will attempt to draw 3A of current over the cable, potentially damaging the USB hub or charger on the A side, which is not guaranteed to be rated at 3A.

    Let’s see this in action. I have plugged the TRIPP LITE cable into my Chromebook Pixel and this Dell charger :      Dell 10W Adapter Spare Wall Charger for Venue 8 Pro/8/7 (XDN34)

    Let’s run the ectool command :
    localhost ~ # ectool --name cros_pd usbpdpower
    Port 0: SNK Charger Type-C 1585mV / 3000mA, max 5000mV / 3000mA / 15000mW
    Port 1: SRC

    The charger has browned out, or tripped its overcurrent protection, and is only providing 1.6V. The Pixel is not charging at this point.

    Please see Section 4.11 of the Type-C specification and the following note :

    1. For Rp when implemented in the USB Type-C plug on a USB Type-C to USB 3.1 Standard-A Cable
    Assembly, a USB Type-C to USB 2.0 Standard-A Cable Assembly, a USB Type-C to USB 2.0 Micro-B
    Receptacle Adapter Assembly or a USB Type-C captive cable connected to a USB host, a value of 56 kΩ
    ± 5% shall be used, in order to provide tolerance to IR drop on V BUS and GND in the cable assembly.

    In other words, since you are creating a USB Type-C plug to a USB 3.1 Type-A Plug assembly, you must use a resistor of value 56kΩ as a pull-up on CC (configuration channel). According to my testing, your cable uses a 10kΩ pull-up, which is not legal when the other end of the cable or adapter is a legacy Type-A or Type-B connector or receptacle.

    Please let me know if there is any more information I can provide about why these adapters are problematic.

    For consumers, I do not recommend buying this cable, as it may cause damage to your charger, hub, or PC USB ports.

    El cable se siente solido y robusto, de gran calidad.

    Lo recomiendo ampliamente, ya que cables similares estan por el doble de precio y de menor calidad.

    I bought this at the end of June. It's now Oct 2, and the cable no longer charges. At first it just didn't work in one direction, but flipping it around still worked. Now neither direction works. Will try a different brand next time.
