  • Connect USB 3.0 Type-B devices to Type-C hosts with 5Gbps throughput
  • Two adapters included: one Type-C male and one Type-C female for flexible connections
  • Gold silver plated connectors and welded design resist damage from tugging or pulling

  • Designed for USB 3.0 Type-B SSDs, cameras and printers — not compatible with USB 2.0 Type-B ports

What this adapter kit does

This two-piece set converts a USB 3.0 Type-B port to either a Type-C male or Type-C female connection. It is intended for users who need to link modern Type-C hosts or cables to legacy USB 3.0 Type-B peripherals such as external SSDs, cameras or printers.

Check your current ports first

The adapters function only with USB 3.0 Type-B sockets and will not operate on USB 2.0 Type-B ports. Verify that both the host and the peripheral support USB 3.0 to achieve the stated 5Gbps throughput; otherwise the connection will fall back to lower speeds.

Replacing older USB 2.0 cables or dongles

Swapping a USB 2.0 link for these adapters raises the theoretical bandwidth tenfold when the host and device are USB 3.0 compliant. The upgrade is worthwhile whenever you transfer large files from Type-B storage or imaging gear and need the faster 5Gbps pathway.

Questions about this item

What comes in the 2-pack and is anything else needed?

The pack contains one Type-B Male to Type-C Male adapter and one Type-B Male to Type-C Female adapter. No extra parts are required for the connection.

Which adapter should I pick for a USB 3.0 Type-B SSD or camera?

Use the Type-B Male to Type-C Male adapter when the host has a Type-C port, or the Type-B Male to Type-C Female adapter when the host cable ends in a Type-C plug. Both are rated for USB 3.0 only.

What does the 5Gbps rating mean once the adapter is plugged in?

It delivers up to 5Gbps throughput when both the host and the device support USB 3.0, which is 10x the speed of USB 2.0. The adapter will not work with USB 2.0 Type-B ports.
