USB-C 3.1 OTG adapter for Type-C devices

This compact adapter bridges USB-C hosts and USB-A peripherals using a USB-C 3.1 male plug and a USB 3.0 Type-A female port. It targets users who need to connect flash drives, card readers, mice, keyboards or external hard drives to smartphones, tablets or laptops equipped only with USB-C sockets. OTG support lets compatible phones act as hosts without a computer.

Reversible metal-shell connector for daily carry

The USB-C male end inserts either way up, removing the frustration of upside-down attempts. A silver-coloured metal shell protects the contacts and resists wear from frequent insertion. Backward compatibility with USB 3.0 and 2.0 means older peripherals still work, while the USB 3.1 Gen 2 interface supports up to 10Gbps transfer rates when both host and device allow it. Lightweight construction keeps it unobtrusive in a bag or pocket.

Driver-free operation across major platforms

Plug-and-play functionality works on macOS, Windows, Chrome OS, Linux and Android without installing software. The adapter enables data transfer, device charging and peripheral expansion from a single cable. Compatibility examples include Nexus 5X, Pixel Chromebook, MacBook 12-inch (2015), Lumia 950 series and Xiaomi phones, though any USB-C device with OTG support can benefit. No external power supply or configuration utility is required.

Questions about this item

Does the USB 3.1 Gen 2 interface really deliver 10 Gbps with this adapter?

The adapter is built to the USB 3.1 Gen 2 specification, which caps at 10 Gbps, but the USB-A female port is rated for USB 3.0 at 5 Gbps, so the practical ceiling is 5 Gbps.

What clearance does the silver metal shell need around the USB-C port?

The compact metal shell fits flush against the device; allow a few millimetres of side clearance so the reversible plug can be inserted without catching on a tight case cut-out.

Is any driver needed to use the OTG function on Android?

No driver is required; plug the USB-C male end into the phone, attach a USB-A peripheral, and the OTG host mode activates automatically on supported Android devices.
