USB-C to USB 3.0 Type-A Adapter

This Fervit adapter connects a USB 3.0 Type-A device to a USB-C host port. It carries a maximum data rate of 5 Gbps and draws power directly from the host, so no external supply is required. Compatibility covers Windows, macOS and Android devices equipped with a USB-C interface.

Suits users adding legacy USB-A peripherals

The adapter suits anyone who needs to plug a standard USB 3.0 flash drive, keyboard, mouse or printer into a modern USB-C port. It is not for users who require video output, alternate modes or host charging capabilities through the same connection.

5 Gbps USB 3.1 Gen 1 data rate

The single specification that decides fit is the 5 Gbps maximum transfer speed provided by the USB 3.1 Gen 1 interface. If your workflow demands higher bandwidth or display protocols, this adapter will not meet those needs.

Questions about this item

Which USB-C host port version do I need on my laptop or phone for this adapter to operate at its 5Gbps maximum?

The adapter requires a USB 3.1 Type-C host port to reach the 5Gbps data rate; a USB 2.0 Type-C port will work but only at lower speeds.

Will my existing USB 3.0 Type-A flash drives and external hard drives work when plugged into the female port of this adapter?

Yes, the USB 3.0 Type-A female connector accepts any standard USB 3.0 device and communicates through the USB 3.1 Type-C male host interface.

How can I confirm the link is running at 5Gbps after I connect the adapter and a drive?

On Windows check the Device Manager connection speed, on macOS use System Report USB tree, or run a large file transfer and verify throughput approaches the 5Gbps ceiling.
