## Long description

Akyga AK-AD-28 is a compact USB-A to USB-A cable gender changer with nickel-plated connector contacts and a black housing. Designed to convert a USB-A socket into a USB-A plug or to join two USB-A cables, this lightweight adapter provides a simple pass-through connection for data and power lines where device and cable orientations require matching male connectors. The adapter is primarily intended for basic USB connections, testing setups, or reversing plug orientation without replacing cables.
Advantages
The adapter features nickel-plated contacts to improve corrosion resistance and maintain reliable electrical contact. Its small, lightweight design makes it easy to carry and store without adding bulk. The black housing offers a low-profile, neutral appearance suitable for a variety of environments. It enables quick conversion between USB-A plug and socket configurations without modifying existing cables.
Suitable for
 Extending a USB-A cable by connecting two USB-A female-terminated cables
 Temporary test setups where devices or measurement tools require a USB-A male connection
 Reversing connector orientation when a device or cable has only USB-A sockets
 Simple data or power pass-through where full USB protocol capabilities are preserved by connected cables
Key specifications
 Connector type: USB-A male to USB-A male
 Contact plating: nickel-plated contacts for corrosion resistance
 Colour: black housing
 Weight: approximately 0.0085 kg (8.5 g)
How to use
Insert each USB-A male connector into the corresponding USB-A female port or cable end until fully seated. Ensure the connected cables or devices are compatible with USB-A connections and that the connection does not exceed the electrical or data capability of the attached cables. For best results, avoid placing strain on the adapter or using it in wet or dusty conditions. Disconnect by gently pulling the adapter from the connector while supporting the cable to avoid bending the plug.
Usage recommendations
Use the adapter for short-term connections, testing, or as a temporary solution to join USB-A cables. Do not use the adapter as a permanent mechanical support between heavy or frequently moved devices. Verify that attached cables and devices support the required power and data characteristics before relying on the connection for high-current or high-speed applications.
