Three-pack USB-C to USB-A adapters

This three-pack converts USB-C ports to USB-A sockets, letting users connect existing flash drives, keyboards or mice to newer laptops, tablets and phones that only provide USB-C. The adapters support USB 3.0 data rates for quick file transfers and work with a wide range of devices including recent MacBook Pro, iPad, iPhone and Samsung Galaxy models. Each unit plugs in without drivers or configuration.

Spacecraft-grade aluminium, slim profile

The housings are machined from spacecraft-grade aluminium alloy with a coloured coating that resists wear and matches modern device finishes. Their compact shape allows two adapters to sit side-by-side on adjacent USB-C ports without blocking each other, keeping both connections usable at the same time. The male USB-C plug and female USB-A socket are oriented for straight-through insertion.

Replaces single legacy-port dongles

Buyers who previously carried one bulky adapter for each legacy peripheral can now keep three lightweight converters in a bag or desk drawer. The jump makes sense when multiple USB-A devices are used regularly with USB-C-only hardware. Users who need USB-C female ports or angled connectors should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

What USB standard does the USB-C to USB-A converter support, and what speed does that cap at?

It supports the USB 3.0 standard, capping data transfer at 5 Gbps.

What physical space does each adapter need so two can sit side-by-side in adjacent ports?

The slim, minimalist design is made to fit two adapters next to each other without blocking neighbouring ports.

How do I install the converter, and what common mistake should I avoid?

Plug the USB-C male end into the device; the USB-A female port is then ready — do not force the connector if it does not seat smoothly.
