USB 2.0 A Male to USB B Female adapter
This USB 2.0 adapter converts a standard USB-A male port into a USB-B female socket, letting you connect printers, scanners or external hard drives that use the older square connector. It is aimed at home-office users and small-business staff who need a quick fix for mismatched ports without buying new cables.
Check your host port and device connector
Before ordering, confirm that the computer or hub you will plug into provides a USB-A female receptacle and that the peripheral you want to attach has a USB-B male plug. The adapter follows the USB 2.0 specification for 480 Mbps data rates, so verify your equipment operates at that speed class for best results.
Durable shell and plug-and-play convenience
A tough, wear-resistant outer casing protects the contacts from scratches and repeated insertion cycles, while the compact form slips easily into a laptop bag. No drivers or software are required — just plug it in on Windows, macOS or Linux and the connection is active immediately.

Questions about this item
Does the adapter ship with any cables or do I need to supply my own USB-B cable?
Only the adapter itself is included; you must provide a standard USB-B cable to connect your printer, scanner or external drive.
The listing mentions USB 2.0 and 480Mbps — is there a faster version of this adapter I should consider?
This model is built to the USB 2.0 specification with a 480Mbps maximum rate; no higher-speed variant of this exact A-male-to-B-female converter is offered.
Will I actually see 480Mbps throughput when I plug this into my laptop and printer?
The adapter supports the USB 2.0 ceiling of 480Mbps, but real-world speed depends on the host controller, the peripheral and the cable quality.
