USB-A to USB-C converter for legacy ports

This Basesailor adapter turns a USB-A port into a USB-C receptacle so you can charge and sync USB-C devices from older laptops, wall chargers, car chargers, hubs, or power banks. The gray aluminum alloy shell measures 0.6 in by 0.85 in by 0.28 in and weighs 10 grams, letting it stay plugged in without blocking adjacent ports. It supports USB 2.0 data at 480 Mbps and charging up to 5V/2A from the host USB-A source. The single-piece design adds no cable clutter to a desk or bag.

For users keeping USB-A gear useful

The converter suits anyone who wants to connect USB-C phones, tablets, earphones, flash drives, card readers, or wireless adapters to existing USB-A ports without replacing chargers or hubs. It works with CarPlay in most vehicles and supports MagSafe wireless chargers at the power the USB-A port can deliver. Buyers who need video output, docking-station host-cable conversion, or USB 3.0 or faster data rates should look elsewhere because this adapter is limited to USB 2.0 signalling and carries no video lanes.

USB 2.0-only signalling at 480 Mbps

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 2.0 interface, which caps data at 480 Mbps and power at 5V/2A. No USB 3.0, 3.1, or 3.2 lanes are present, so high-speed storage, video adapters, or fast-charging protocols such as PD or PPS will not operate through this converter. If your workflow demands more bandwidth or higher power, this is not the right part.
