Fervit USB 3.0 Type-B to Type-A Adapter 2-Pack
Two adapters convert USB 3.0 Type-B ports to Type-A male or female connectors at up to 5Gbps throughput
- Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion for reliable data transfer
- Welded construction with heavy cable ends prevents breakage from accidental pulls
- Two adapters included: Type-B male to Type-A male and Type-B male to Type-A female
- Up to 5 Gbps throughput with USB 3.0 host and device, ten times faster than USB 2.0
- Designed for USB 3.0 Type-B devices such as SSDs, cameras and printers
What you get
Two adapters are included: one Type-B male to Type-A male and one Type-B male to Type-A female. Both comply with USB 3.0 and support up to 5Gbps throughput when paired with a USB 3.0 host and device. Gold-plated contacts and welded strain reliefs are designed to withstand accidental tugs.
Check your ports
Verify that the device you want to connect has a USB 3.0 Type-B socket, not a USB 2.0 Type-B port, because these adapters will not work with the older standard. Ensure your computer or hub provides a USB 3.0 Type-A port to achieve the rated 5Gbps speed. The pack supplies both gender configurations for direct or extended connections.
Build and daily use
Gold silver-plated connectors and heavy moulded ends resist wear from repeated insertion and cable stress. The welded design prevents the cable from breaking at the junction when pulled. The male-to-female unit acts as a short extension, while the male-to-male unit bridges directly between device and host without extra cables.

Questions about this item
What comes in the 2-pack and do I need any extra cables?
The pack contains one Type-B Male to Type-A Male adapter and one Type-B Male to Type-A Female adapter. Both plug directly into a USB 3.0 Type-B device and a Type-A port; no extra cables are required.
Which adapter should I use for my external SSD or camera?
Use the Type-B Male to Type-A Male adapter if the host port is a standard Type-A socket, or the Type-B Male to Type-A Female adapter if you need to extend an existing Type-A cable.
What does the 5 Gbps figure mean when I plug this into my computer?
With a USB 3.0 host and device the link runs at up to 5 Gbps, which is 10x the speed of USB 2.0; the adapter does not work with USB 2.0 Type-B ports.
