How to use

Insert the USB-C end of the adapter into the host device’s USB-C port, then connect the USB-A peripheral or cable to the adapter’s USB-A receptacle. Once connected, the host should recognize the peripheral and establish a data connection at the highest mutually supported speed. For optimal performance, use USB 3.0/3.1 compatible cables and ports on both host and peripheral devices.

Usage recommendations

To achieve the rated transfer speeds, ensure both the host port and the connected peripheral support USB 3.1 Gen1. Avoid excessive bending of connectors and store the adapter in a protective case when transporting to minimize wear. If performance is lower than expected, try a different USB cable or port, and verify device drivers and firmware are up to date.
