Universal USB-C OTG Adapter

The IOGEAR USB-C to USB-A OTG adapter cable converts a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port into a USB 3.0 interface. It enables smartphones, tablets and laptops to connect flash drives, external hard drives, keyboards, mice and hubs. Video output is not supported.

Side-by-side port design

The compact male-to-female form factor fits laptops with two adjacent USB-C ports so two adapters or USB-A devices sit side by side without interference. No driver or software installation is required for immediate plug-and-play operation.

5Gbps transfer upgrade

The adapter delivers up to 5Gbps data throughput, ten times faster than USB 2.0, for rapid transfer of HD video and large music libraries. It is intended for data transfer rather than fast charging and requires the host device to support OTG functionality.
