USB-C to USB 3.0 Type-A adaptor

This adaptor lets users connect existing USB Type-A peripherals to a host device that only offers a USB Type-C port. It is intended for anyone who needs to keep using standard flash drives, keyboards, mice or cables with newer laptops, tablets or phones that have dropped the larger port.

USB 3.0 speed ceiling and legacy fallbacks

The adapter operates at USB 3.0 data rates when both the host and the peripheral support that standard. It also falls back to USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 speeds automatically, so older devices still work but will not exceed their own maximum throughput.

Compact two-inch moulding with reinforced ends

The short 2-inch body keeps the connection close to the device, reducing leverage on the host port and preventing the adaptor from snagging on bags or desk clutter. Both the USB-C plug and the Type-A receptacle use standard moulded strain relief, so repeated insertion and removal stays reliable without bending the cable or damaging the port.
