Logitech USB-A to USB-C Adapter
This adapter lets you connect Logitech USB-C peripherals such as webcams, keyboards, mice, headsets, and receivers to a USB-A port on a laptop or dock. It works through simple plug-and-play operation without requiring additional drivers or software installation. The graphite-coloured unit is designed for a reliable wired connection between newer Logitech devices and legacy USB-A sockets.
Suits owners of Logitech USB-C gear using older
It is built for users who need to attach Logitech USB-C accessories to computers or docks that only offer USB-A ports. The power protection design allows current to flow only from the host to the device, protecting the host from potential damage. Buyers needing to connect non-Logitech USB-C devices, transfer data at high speeds, or charge devices beyond 5V/0.5A should look at other solutions.
Power protection with 5V/0.5A charging limit
The adapter permits power flow exclusively from the host to the connected peripheral, capping charging support at 5V/0.5A. This one-way design safeguards the host laptop or dock from possible electrical damage during use. It is the defining specification that determines whether the adapter matches the power requirements of a specific Logitech USB-C device.

Questions about this item
Will the adapter itself need replacing if the USB-C connector wears out?
The adapter is a passive plug-and-play unit with no moving parts, so it only needs replacement if the connector is physically damaged.
What is the maximum charging current the adapter can pass to a connected Logitech device?
It supports charging up to 5V/0.5A, so any device drawing more than half an amp will be current-limited by the adapter.
Does the adapter get warm when a webcam or headset is plugged in all day?
Power flows only from the host to the device and is capped at 0.5A, so heat buildup during continuous use is negligible.
