USB 3.0 A to Micro B Adapter with Power
This USB 3.0 A to Micro B adapter cable connects external hard drives or SSDs with a Micro B port to a standard USB A host. A secondary USB 2.0 connector supplies extra power for drives that need more current than a single port provides. The main cable is 60cm long and the power tail is 20cm. Plug and play operation requires no drivers.
Suits single-port drives needing extra current
Users whose Micro B drive draws more power than one USB A port can deliver will benefit from the auxiliary power connector. Builders whose drive works on a single port or who need a Type C host connection will not find this adapter suitable. The cable only bridges USB A to Micro B.
Dual-cable layout with 60cm main and 20cm power tail
The critical specification is the combined cable geometry: a 60cm USB 3.0 data lead paired with a 20cm USB 2.0 power lead. This fixed Y-shape determines whether the adapter reaches both host ports and the drive enclosure in your setup.

Questions about this item
What real-world transfer rate can I expect from the USB 3.0 connection during long transfers?
The adapter cable reaches an actual measured speed of 180-300 Mbps over the USB 3.0 interface.
Will the extra USB 2.0 power connector make the cable run hot or draw more power after hours of use?
The USB 2.0 port only supplements power for the attached drive; the PVC and tinned-copper cable stays cool during extended operation.
Which ports must my computer already have so this adapter works with my external hard disk?
You need a standard USB 3.0 Type-A port for data and a second USB 2.0 Type-A port for the supplemental power lead.
