USB-C OTG card reader for phones and laptops

The Vszerda CY-UC-035-TF combines a microSDXC slot with a USB 3.0 Type-A port in a compact Type-C adapter. It lets mobile devices and laptops read memory cards or connect standard USB peripherals such as flash drives or a mouse. The copper construction adds durability for daily carry.

USB 3.0 female port and card slot share the bus

The adapter cannot run the USB-A port and the microSD slot simultaneously; only one function is active at a time. Data rates follow the USB 3.0 Super-Speed specification at 10 or 5 Gbps, with fallback to 480 Mbps and 1.5 Mbps for older devices. Power delivery is limited to 5 V from the host.

One microSDXC slot defines the storage limit

The reader accepts MICRO SD, SDXC and TF cards up to the maximum capacity those standards allow. No other card formats are supported, so users with full-size SD or CFexpress media need a different solution. The single slot also means only one card can be accessed per session.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the model with the USB 3.0 female port or the one with only the TF slot?

The CY-UC-035-TF combines a USB 3.0 female port and a TF card slot in one adapter; you cannot use both at the same time.

What does the 10 Gbps rating mean when I plug this into my laptop?

It is the peak USB 3.0 Super-Speed ceiling; real transfer rates depend on the card and host, and the adapter also falls back to 480 Mbps or 1.5 Mbps when needed.

Which USB standard does the Type-C connector actually follow?

The connector is compliant with USB 3.0 Super-Speed at 10/5 Gbps, USB 2.0 Hi-Speed at 480 Mbps and USB 1.1 Low-Speed at 1.5 Mbps.
