USB-C Female to USB-A Male Adapter

This two-pack converts USB-A ports on laptops, wall chargers, car chargers, hubs or power banks into USB-C inputs for charging and data transfer. It is suited for users who need to connect USB-C cables or accessories to older USB-A power sources without replacing existing equipment.

USB 2.0 Charging and Sync Limitations

The adapters support USB 2.0 data transfer up to 480 Mbps and charging up to 5V/2A depending on the USB-A power source. They do not transmit video signals such as HDMI or VGA, cannot drive a dock's main USB-C host cable, and do not support high-power USB-C fast-charging protocols.

Aluminum Housing and Compact Form Factor

An aluminum alloy shell provides durability and heat dissipation while the low-profile design sits close to the port so it can remain plugged in. The adapter works with USB-C phones, tablets, earphones, flash drives, card readers and other low-power accessories but will not deliver fast-charging speeds that require USB-C Power Delivery.

Questions about this item

Will the aluminum housing on this USB-CF-AM adapter need any maintenance over time?

The aluminum alloy shell requires no routine maintenance; it simply protects the internal USB 2.0 components for stable charging and data transfer.

What is the first limit I will hit if I run this adapter at full load all day?

The USB 2.0 interface caps data at 480 Mbps and charging at 5V/2A, so sustained use stops at those speeds.

How much heat or noise does the gray two-pack produce when left plugged into a laptop USB-A port continuously?

The metal housing aids heat dissipation and there are no moving parts, so the adapter runs silently and stays cool during all-day use.
