Tripp Lite’s U330-05M-C2C USB 3.1 Gen 1 Active Extension Cable increases the distance between connected USB devices. With a USB-C® male connector on one end and a USB-C female connector on the other, it attaches to your current USB-C cable to connect your laptop, Chromebook, MacBook, tablet or smartphone to a USB-C keyboard, printer, hard drive, patch panel or other peripheral. Its 16 ft. (5 m) length gives you great flexibility in placing equipment, and by daisy-chaining two units together, you can extend your connection even farther—up to 33 ft. (10 m)! With a built-in signal booster, you can rest assured your signal will remain strong. With data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps, this high-quality cable is the perfect accessory for your USB-C device.

This handy cable transfers data up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 cables. It’s backward compatible with previous USB generations, so it will work with slower devices as well. It provides 770 mA of power to connected devices without the need for an external power adapter. For more power-hungry applications, it can be connected to a compatible DC 5V power supply (sold separately) with its built-in power connector. 

Unlike traditional USB cables that can be attached only one way, USB-C connectors are reversible by design. The U330-05M-C2C provides a fast and easy connection to USB ports. Connect its male end to your device, and connect its female end to a printer, hub or docking station cable. Connect it right-side up or upside down—the first time, every time.
