Connect Micro USB devices to USB A peripherals

This Hetai Tech OTG cable links a Micro USB port on a phone or tablet to standard USB A accessories such as flash drives, keyboards, mice and card readers. The 18cm cable adds a female USB A socket so compatible Android devices can read external storage or use desktop peripherals without extra software. Plug and play operation makes the connection immediate.

For users with OTG-capable Micro USB ports

The adapter suits anyone whose phone or tablet explicitly supports USB On-The-Go and who wants to attach USB A flash drives, input devices or card readers. It is not intended for charging, so buyers who need power delivery should look elsewhere. Devices without OTG support will not recognise connected peripherals.

Aluminium connectors and 5 Gbps USB 3.0 speed

Aluminium connector shells reinforce the ends against wear from repeated insertion. The USB 3.0 interface moves files up to 5 Gbps, ten times faster than USB 2.0, so large transfers finish quickly. The short 7.1 inch length keeps the setup compact for travel or desk use.

Questions about this item

What USB-A peripherals can I connect with the Micro USB OTG end?

The cable supports USB 3.0 and 2.0 flash drives, keyboards, game controllers, wireless mice and SD or TF card readers on Android devices with OTG function.

Will the USB-C adapter end work with my existing USB 2.0 flash drives and keyboard?

Yes, the USB 3.0 standard is backward compatible so USB 2.0 peripherals will function at their native speed when plugged into the USB-A female port.

How can I confirm the 5 Gbps link is active after plugging in a USB 3.0 drive?

Transfer a large file and verify the speed approaches the 5 Gbps maximum, or check the device manager to see the connection listed as USB 3.0.
