CompactFlash USB-C Reader
The PixelFlash CF Card Reader USB C Blue is a 2-in-1 accessory designed for photographers and videographers who need to offload files from CompactFlash media. Its integrated USB-C cable connects directly to modern laptops, tablets and phones without requiring a separate adapter. The compact form factor suits field workflows where bag space is limited.
USB 3.1 Type-C Interface Limits
The reader operates over USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C, delivering up to 5Gb/s theoretical bandwidth. Actual throughput depends on the host controller and the card's UDMA mode. The device falls back to USB 2.0 speeds when plugged into older ports, so maximum transfer rates are only available on hosts that support the 3.1 standard.
UDMA-7 Card Support and Capacity Headroom
The reader is optimised for UDMA-7 CompactFlash cards from major brands, handling high-capacity media used in professional cameras. Performance scales with the card's rated speed; slower legacy cards will not reach the interface ceiling. Users working with newer card formats such as CFexpress or SD will need a different reader.

Questions about this item
Which colour should I choose for the PixelFlash CF Card Reader?
The reader comes in Blue, White, Black and Red; all colours share the same USB 3.1 Type-C cable, no-bend pins and UDMA-7 support, so pick the shade you prefer.
What does the 5Gb/s headline speed mean when I plug this into my laptop?
That is the USB 3.1 Gen 1 bus ceiling; real-world throughput depends on the card's UDMA-7 rating and the host port, but large video and image files will move at the card's maximum sustained rate.
Does the USB-C connector limit me to USB 3.1 only?
The built-in cable uses USB 3.1 Type-C SuperSpeed and is backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports, so it works on older hosts at reduced speed.
