USB 2.0 card reader for microSD
This compact reader accepts a single T-flash or microSD card through its USB 2.0 interface. It draws power directly from the host port so no external supply is required. The plug-and-play design works without driver installation on common operating systems. A plastic cap protects the USB connector when the device is not in use.
480 Mbps throughput for everyday transfers
The USB 2.0 link tops out at 480 Mbps, which is sufficient for moving photos, documents and music from a phone or camera. Large video files or batch RAW imports will take noticeably longer than on a USB 3.0 reader. Only one card slot is present, so simultaneous multi-card workflows are not supported.
Passive cooling keeps it silent
With no moving parts the reader runs completely silent in normal use. The low power draw of the USB 2.0 interface means the body stays cool to the touch during extended transfers. The attached strap helps prevent loss when the reader is carried on a keyring or lanyard.

Questions about this item
Will the USB 2.0 480Mbps interface work with my older desktop that only has USB 1.1 ports?
Yes, the reader is backward compatible with USB 1.1 ports, though transfer speeds will be limited to the older port's maximum capability.
How can I confirm the card reader is functioning correctly after plugging it in?
The operating system should detect the device automatically and assign a new drive letter when a compatible T-flash card is inserted, allowing immediate file access.
Does the package include a memory card or only the reader with its protective cover and strap?
Only the card reader with a plastic cover for the USB plug and an attached strap are included; all compatible T-flash cards must be purchased separately.
