USB-C to USB-A adapter cable

This 20 centimetre adapter cable converts a USB-C male port into a USB-A female socket, allowing connection of flash drives, card readers, keyboards and mice to phones, tablets and laptops with USB-C ports. It is intended for users who need to attach existing USB-A peripherals to newer USB-C only devices without carrying a bulky hub. The short cable keeps the setup compact for desk or mobile use.

USB 3.1 data transfer limit

The adapter supports USB 3.1 data transfer rates up to 5Gbps (640 MB/s), which is up to ten times faster than USB 2.0 for moving large files, photos and videos. The specification states data transfer only; the adapter does not support charging or video output, so it cannot power devices or drive external displays. Actual throughput will depend on the host device, the connected peripheral and the cable quality used in the chain.

Plug-and-play installation

The adapter requires no drivers or software; simply plug the USB-C male end into the host device and insert the USB-A peripheral into the female socket. The compact design allows side-by-side use without blocking adjacent ports on most devices. A common issue is attempting to use the adapter for charging or video output, which the product does not support, leading to perceived faults when those functions fail.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the USB 3.0 and USB 3.1 versions of this adapter?

The product uses a single USB 3.1 interface that delivers up to 5Gbps (640 MB/s) data transfer; there is no separate 3.0 version to select.

What does the 5Gbps headline speed mean when I plug this into my laptop?

It allows large files, photos and videos to move at up to 640 MB/s, roughly ten times faster than USB 2.0, but actual throughput depends on the connected drive and host controller.

Which USB standard does the Type-C male connector follow and what does it limit?

The connector follows USB 3.1, capping data at 5Gbps and restricting the adapter to data transfer only — no charging or video output.
