USB-A Male to USB-C Female Adapter Space Gray

The Brainwavz USB-A Male to USB-C Female Adapter in Space Gray converts a standard USB-A port into a USB-C interface. It allows connection of USB-C smartphones, tablets, and hard drives to legacy USB ports. The adapter supports data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps for fast file syncing. Its ultra-compact, low-profile design prevents blocking adjacent ports on your device.

Users adding USB-C peripherals to older ports

Suits users who need to connect USB-C accessories to computers or laptops equipped only with USB-A ports. The brushed Space Gray finish matches modern setups like Mac mini M2/M1 and Mac Studio. Not for buyers who require video output or Power Delivery charging, as this adapter handles only USB data signals. Those needing to convert a USB-C port to USB-A should look at a different adapter type.

Up to 5 Gbps data transfer speed

The decisive specification is the maximum data transfer rate of 5 Gbps over the USB interface. This speed determines how quickly files move between the host and connected USB-C storage or devices. Verify that your USB-A port and the target USB-C device both support this bandwidth for optimal performance. The adapter does not alter the host port's underlying protocol capabilities.

Questions about this item

Does the adapter ship with a cable or only the adapter itself?

The package contains the USB-A to USB-C adapter and a user manual; no cable is included.

Is the Space Gray finish the only colour option for this adapter?

The listing describes a single Space Gray model with a brushed finish; no other colours are mentioned.

What real-world transfer speed can I expect when I plug a USB-C SSD into this adapter?

The adapter supports up to 5 Gbps, so a USB-C SSD will be limited to USB 3.0 speeds rather than its native USB 3.1 or 3.2 performance.
