USB-C to Micro-USB adapter for legacy cables

This adapter lets a USB-C mobile device connect to a USB-A host through any standard Micro-USB cable. It bridges the connector gap so existing cables remain useful for charging and syncing newer phones or tablets. The compact form factor slips easily into a bag or pocket.

Nickel-plated connectors in a lightweight black

Nickel plating on the contacts resists corrosion and maintains reliable conductivity over repeated insertions. The moulded strain relief protects the junction between the Type-C male plug and the Micro-USB female port. At 0.20 oz it adds negligible bulk to a travel kit.

USB 2.0 480 Mbit/s data rate

The adapter operates at the USB 2.0 specification, delivering up to 480 Mbit/s for file transfers and standard charging currents. It does not support faster USB 3.x or USB4 speeds, so buyers needing higher throughput should select a different solution.

Questions about this item

What speed does the USB 2.0 interface cap at in practice?

The adapter runs at USB 2.0 speeds, so data transfers top out at 480 Mbit/s.

What does the adapter need to connect physically?

It has a USB-C male plug on one side and a Micro-USB female port on the other, weighing .20 oz.

How is it installed, and what step do people get wrong?

Plug the USB-C end into the host device, then insert a standard Micro-USB cable into the adapter; the common mistake is trying to plug a Micro-USB device directly into the USB-C port without the cable.
