Connect Android Devices to USB Peripherals

This 18 cm adapter cable links a Micro USB port to a standard USB A female socket. It enables Android phones or tablets with USB On-The-Go support to use flash drives, keyboards, mice, game controllers or card readers. The aluminium connector housings protect the ends during frequent insertion.

Plug-and-Play Installation

No drivers are required; the adapter works immediately when connected to a compatible host. The short 7.1 inch length keeps the setup tidy but offers very little slack, so the peripheral sits close to the device. The supplier notes the adapter is intended for data transfer and does not recommend it for charging.

Check Host OTG Support First

Verify that your phone, tablet or laptop explicitly supports USB On-The-Go before ordering, as the adapter cannot add that capability. Ensure the peripheral you plan to attach uses a standard USB A plug and does not demand more power than the host port can supply.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the 5 Gbps USB 3.0 transfer speed is active after connecting this 18 cm adapter?

On a computer, open Device Manager or System Information and confirm the port enumerates as USB 3.0; on Android, use a USB 3.0 flash drive and check that large files move at several hundred MB/s rather than USB 2.0 speeds.

What accessories are included with the Hetai Tech adapter and what must I supply?

The package contains only the 18 cm Micro USB to USB A adapter cable with aluminium-alloy connectors; you must provide the USB 3.0 or 2.0 peripheral, the host device with a Micro USB port, and any OTG-capable phone or tablet.

Which version of this cable should I choose for a USB 3.0 hard drive versus a USB 2.0 keyboard?

This single model supports USB 3.0 at up to 5 Gbps and is backward compatible with USB 2.0, so the same 18 cm adapter works for both the hard drive and the keyboard without a different version.
