Syntech Mark3 USB-C to USB-A 3.0 Adapter Pair

This two-pack provides USB-C male to USB 3.0 female connectors for linking legacy USB-A peripherals to modern laptops, tablets and smartphones. Each adapter measures 2.74 in by 1.65 in by .81 in and weighs .0375 ounces. The zinc-alloy housing features anti-slip embossments and is rated for 10000 insertions.

USB 3.0 throughput and Thunderbolt port limits

The adapters operate at USB 3.0 speeds, so data moves at up to 5 Gbps when the host port supports that rate. Thunderbolt 3 and 4 ports accept the connector physically but will negotiate down to USB 3.0 performance. No driver is required; the connection is plug-and-play on supported operating systems.

Space Grey finish matches recent MacBook

The metallic Space Grey colour aligns with Apple devices released from 2016 onward for MacBook Pro and 2018 onward for MacBook Air, plus current iPhone, iPad and iPad Pro models listed in the compatibility data. Buyers needing USB-C female ports or USB 3.2 Gen 2 speeds should select a different adapter type.
