Monoprice USB-A to USB-C Adapter

This Monoprice adapter converts a legacy USB-A port into a USB-C connection for charging and data. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 speeds up to 10Gbps and delivers up to 2A of power. The compact aluminum body is rated for 10000 insertion cycles and fits easily in a bag or pocket.

For upgrading older chargers and ports

Users with USB-A wall chargers, power banks or laptop ports can connect modern USB-C phones, tablets and drives. It adds fast data and charging without replacing cables. Buyers who need video output to a monitor should look elsewhere because this adapter does not transmit display signals.

10Gbps data and 2A charging only

The decisive specification is the USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface providing 10Gbps bandwidth and 2A power delivery. It handles file transfers and smartphone charging but cannot drive an external display. Confirm your host port and cable support the same generation to achieve the rated speed.

Questions about this item

Will the USB-A plug fit a standard rectangular USB-A port on my charger or laptop?

Yes, the adapter uses a standard USB-A male connector that fits any USB-A port without extra hardware.

Is there a specific orientation required when inserting the USB-C end into my phone or tablet?

No, the USB-C connector is reversible so it inserts either way up; the only step is pushing it fully home until it clicks.

How long should the adapter last before the connector wears out from daily plugging and unplugging?

The adapter is rated for up to 10000 plug-and-unplug cycles, so normal daily use should give years of reliable service.
