Two-Pack USB-C Adapter for Legacy Ports

This two-pack converts USB-A ports into USB-C interfaces so older laptops, chargers and power banks can accept USB-C cables and peripherals. Each adapter measures 1.5 inches by .55 inches by .25 inches and weighs 8 grams with an aluminium alloy shell and nickel-plated contacts. The pair suits anyone adding USB-C convenience without replacing existing hardware.

Check Port Generation for Full Speed

Both sides of the USB-C female port support 10 Gbps only when the host USB-A port is USB 3.1 Gen 2; slower ports will limit transfer rates accordingly. The USB-A connector cannot deliver USB Power Delivery fast charging, so connected devices charge at standard rates. Verify that your source port and cable match the required generation before expecting maximum throughput.

Aluminium Shell Runs Cool and Silent

The all-metal housing dissipates heat from the internal IC chip during sustained 10 Gbps transfers or 3 A charging without any fan noise. Rated for a maximum input voltage of 20 V, the adapter draws power only from the host USB-A port and adds negligible load to laptops or power banks. Normal use stays quiet and thermally unobtrusive.

Questions about this item

What comes in the package and do I need any extra cables?

You receive two black USB-C female to USB-A male adapters. Each adapter has a USB-A plug on one side and a USB-C port on the other, so you only need your existing USB-C cable or device to start using them.

There are two adapters in the pack — is there any difference between them?

Both adapters are identical. Each one supports the same 10 Gbps data rate on either orientation of the USB-C plug and both measure 1.5" by .55" by .25".

When will I actually see the 10 Gbps speed on my computer?

The 10 Gbps rate is the theoretical maximum. You will only reach it when the host port, the cable and the connected device all support USB 3.1 Gen 2; otherwise the link falls back to the lowest common speed.
