Tripp Lite 6ft USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Cable 5-Pin Mini-B to USB Type-C USB-C M/M Black (U040-006-MINI)

Older hard drives, cameras and lab gear often outlast the ports they came with. We built this black patch cord to link those legacy Mini-B peripherals straight to modern USB-C hosts without clumsy adapters in the middle. It handles power and data over clean, copper pairs.

What it does

How this one is built

Reversible host plug

The USB-C connector seats properly on the first try, upside down or right side up. It fits cleanly into thin modern laptop frames and tight hub banks without crowding adjacent connections.

Legacy peripheral link

The Mini-B end snaps securely into older external drives, audio interfaces and field gear. It maintains full Hi-Speed transfer rates while staying compatible with earlier USB standards.

Solid molded ends

Heavy strain relief boots keep the cable from kinking where it meets the plugs. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and keep signaling clean after many mating cycles on a test bench.

Internal wire gauge

Dedicated power and data pairs carry charging current and clean signal across the run. Foil and braid shielding under the outer jacket keeps everyday line noise from chewing into file transfers.

On the nameplate

These are the figures published for this unit. Where a number is missing here it was not printed on the listing, and we would rather leave the row out than fill it with a guess.
