Three-Pack USB-C to USB 3.0 Adapters
This three-pack supplies USB-C male to USB 3.0 female adapters for users who need to connect standard USB-A peripherals to devices equipped only with USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 ports. The set suits owners of MacBook Pro models from 2016, MacBook Air models from 2018, iMac 2021, iPad Pro 2021 and other recent Type-C laptops, tablets or smartphones.
Aluminium Alloy Build and 10 000-Cycle Connectors
Each adapter uses an aluminium alloy shell with a textured finish that resists slipping during insertion. The male USB-C and female USB 3.0 connectors are rated for up to 10000 mating cycles, supporting repeated daily plugging and unplugging without mechanical degradation. The compact, driver-free design allows immediate use for data sync or phone charging.
USB 3.0 Bandwidth and Power Limits
The USB 3.0 interface caps transfer rates at its native specification, so connected storage or peripherals cannot exceed that throughput. Available bus power is limited to what the host USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port supplies, which may restrict operation of high-draw devices such as bus-powered hard drives. The adapters do not add video output or alternate-mode functionality.
