The adapter enables connection of legacy USB‑A peripherals to modern laptops, tablets and smartphones with a small, pocketable form factor. It facilitates data transfer and peripheral access without requiring longer cables or docking stations, making it convenient for occasional use with flash drives, mice, keyboards and other USB‑A accessories.

Advantages

The adapter offers USB 3.0 transfer speeds through a USB-C interface while maintaining a minimal footprint for portability. Its simple plug-and-play design requires no drivers on most operating systems, and the sturdy shell supports repeated insertion and removal. The product is compatible with a wide range of USB‑A devices and allows easy access to existing peripherals when using USB‑C–only hosts.

Suitable for

• Connecting USB‑A flash drives to USB‑C laptops and tablets
• Using wired mice or keyboards with devices that have only USB‑C ports
• Accessing external storage for file transfer and backup
• Attaching USB‑A peripherals briefly while traveling or in the field

Key specifications

• Interface: USB-C (male) to USB-A (female)
• Data standard: USB 3.0 data transfer rates
• Compatibility: Works with USB‑C host ports supporting USB data functions
• Form factor: Compact, lightweight adapter designed for portability
• Power: Supports standard USB bus power for connected peripherals

How to use

Insert the USB-C male connector into the USB-C port of your computer, tablet or smartphone. Plug the USB‑A device into the adapter’s USB‑A port; most devices will be recognized automatically and be ready for data transfer or peripheral use. For higher power-draw accessories, check that the host device can supply adequate power. Remove the adapter by gently pulling it straight out of the host port when finished.

Usage recommendations

Use the adapter for short-term or occasional connections rather than as a permanent extension; avoid applying lateral force to the host port while a device is attached. Keep contact points clean and avoid exposing the adapter to liquids or extreme temperatures to ensure consistent performance.
