Tripp Lite USB C to USB A Cable, USB 3.1 Gen 1, Male to Male, Black, 6-ft. (U428-006)
Desks fill up with mixed hardware over time. We built this cable to connect newer Type-C phones, tablets, and peripherals straight into the Type-A ports on existing laptops, hubs, and wall chargers. It carries power and data across a single clean run.
Price as our retail partner last listed it. They set it and they can change it, so the figure on their page is the one that counts at checkout.

How this one is built
Reversible Type-C end
The smaller connector plugs in right side up or upside down on the first try. It seats firmly into your device socket without wobbling or putting awkward torque on the port while you work.
Shielded internal construction
Foil shielding wraps the conductors inside to isolate line noise and electromagnetic interference. Signals stay clean between host and peripheral during heavy file transfers and standard device sync routines.
Gold-plated contact pins
We use gold plating over copper contacts inside both connector heads. The surface resists oxidation from humidity and repeated plugging cycles, keeping conductivity steady across daily office use.
Heavy PVC outer jacket
A tough black jacket protects the wiring from tight bends behind a desktop tower or inside a travel bag. Molded strain reliefs flex under tension without pulling the copper free from the terminals.
