Two-Pack USB 3.0 to Type-C Adapters

This pack contains two USB 3.0 Male to Type-C Female OTG adapters. They convert standard USB-A ports into Type-C female connections for connecting USB-C peripherals. The compact design allows both units to sit side by side without blocking neighbouring ports. No driver installation is required for instant plug-and-play operation.

Suited for adding Type-C access to USB-A ports

Ideal for users who need to connect USB-C flash drives, headsets, external hard drives or phones to laptops, desktops or chargers with only USB-A sockets. The OTG function enables direct data exchange between USB-A hosts and USB-C devices. Not suited for buyers who require power delivery negotiation beyond basic charging or alternate video modes.

Up to 5Gbps data transfer speed

Compliant with the USB 3.0 specification, the adapters support a maximum of 5Gbps for rapid file transfers with compatible drives. Simultaneous stable charging is provided for portable gadgets such as Type-C headphones and mobile phones. Premium internal circuitry reduces signal loss during extended use.

Questions about this item

Does the USB 3.0 interface cap real-world transfer speeds at 5Gbps?

The adapter complies with USB 3.0 and supports up to 5Gbps, so the practical ceiling is the 5Gbps signalling rate of the host port and cable.

What physical space does the mini adapter need so it will not block neighbouring ports?

Its compact form factor fits flush against the USB-A port and is small enough to leave adjacent ports free on laptops, desktops or chargers.

How is the adapter installed and what step do people often miss?

Simply plug the USB-A male end into the host port and the USB-C device into the female end; no driver installation is required, but the host must support USB OTG for bidirectional data.
