Adapter Purpose
The Manhattan 354714 adapts a USB 3.1 Type-A port to accept a Type-C plug. It suits users connecting newer Type-C cables or devices to legacy Type-A hosts such as older laptops, desktops or hubs. Buyers needing the reverse direction — Type-C host to Type-A peripheral — cannot use this adapter.
Sustained Behaviour
The nickel-plated 9-pin Type-A and 24-pin Type-C contacts maintain USB 3.1 Gen 2 signalling through the moulded ABS body. No active circuitry is present, so throughput depends entirely on the host controller, cable quality and peripheral capabilities. Extended sessions add no thermal load beyond the host port itself.
Installation Notes
Insert the Type-A male end into the host port and connect the Type-C cable to the female end; no drivers are required. The booted, moulded strain relief resists cable tug, but the rigid body may block adjacent ports on dense I/O panels. A low-profile Type-A extension cable can relieve clearance issues.

Questions about this item
Does the 3.1 Gen 2 adapter generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when left plugged in all day?
The passive 3.1 adapter has no active circuitry, so it produces no measurable heat and adds negligible power draw during continuous use.
What port must my computer already have to use this Type-A male to Type-C female adapter?
Your host device needs a standard USB 3.1 Type-A receptacle; the 9-pin male plug inserts directly into that port.
Will a legacy USB 2.0 Type-A port still work with this 3.1 adapter, and what speed should I expect?
Yes, the adapter is backward compatible; plugged into a USB 2.0 Type-A port it will operate at 2.0 speeds while maintaining the Type-C female connection.
