USB-C 2.0 cable with 5 A power rating

The Tripp Lite U040-003-C-5A is a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed cable with USB-C male connectors on both ends. It carries a 5 A power rating and supports up to 100 W at 20 V for fast-charging large mobile devices. The three-foot length suits desktop or close-range connections between smartphones, tablets, computers and wall chargers. Foil and braid shielding protects against EMI and RFI interference.

Suits users who need high-wattage charging over

This cable is ideal for anyone charging a power-hungry laptop or tablet while accepting USB 2.0 data rates of 480 Mbps. Reversible connectors and integral strain relief add daily convenience and durability. Buyers who require faster data transfer speeds or longer reach should look at something else. The fixed three-foot length also limits flexibility for distant ports.

5 A / 100 W power delivery over USB 2.0

The single specification that decides fit is the 5 A current rating delivering up to 100 W of power over a USB 2.0 interface. If your device needs that charging capacity and operates at 480 Mbps, this cable matches the requirement. Lower-rated cables cannot supply the same power, while higher-speed cables add cost without raising the wattage.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and is anything else needed to use it?

The box contains the single 3 ft USB-C to USB-C cable with male connectors on both ends. No extra adapters or accessories are required to connect two USB-C devices.

Which length or power rating should I pick for a MacBook Pro?

This model is the 3 ft version rated for 20V at 5A, delivering up to 100W — sufficient for fast-charging a MacBook Pro. Other lengths or ratings are separate part numbers.

Will I see the full 480 Mbps transfer speed when I plug it into my laptop?

The cable supports USB 2.0 Hi-Speed up to 480 Mbps. Actual throughput depends on the host and device controllers, but the cable itself does not limit the connection below that ceiling.
