STARTECH GCUSBAAFF USB A Gender Changer F/F data adapter

USB-A gender changer

The StarTech.com GCUSBAAFF connects two USB-A male plugs, turning a male port into a female one. It suits installers who need to join a cable to a device or extend a run without replacing the lead. The adapter is supplied new and weighs approximately 0.30 oz. RoHS, WEEE and REACH certifications confirm compliant materials.

Female-to-female coupling

Both ends present a 4-pin USB-A female socket in a white moulded housing. The straight-through pinout preserves the standard USB wiring so data and power pass unchanged. No cable is attached, keeping the joint compact for tight panels or rack spaces. The lifetime warranty from the manufacturer covers defects in materials and workmanship.

Replaces loose couplers

This unit replaces makeshift gender changers or soldered joints that can fail under vibration. The jump is worth it when a permanent, certified female-to-female link is required for USB-A equipment. It does not convert to USB-B, USB-C, Micro-USB or any other connector type. Buyers needing a male-to-female or male-to-male arrangement must choose a different adapter.
