Versatile USB-C Female to USB 3.0 Male Adapter

This compact adapter connects a USB-C female port to a standard USB 3.0 Type-A male plug. It is designed for users who need to link newer USB-C devices or cables to older USB-A ports on laptops, desktops, or hubs. The reversible Type-C connector ensures easy insertion without checking orientation.

Metallic Build with Reversible Connector Design

The adapter features a metallic coloured housing and a reversible USB-C female socket that accepts plugs either way up. Its small form factor resembles a USB 2.0 Micro-B connector, making it unobtrusive when left plugged into a port. It supports scalable power charging alongside USB 3.0 data transfer for compatible devices.

Check Port Compatibility and Data-Only Limitation

Verify that your host device provides a USB 3.0 Type-A port, as the adapter requires this interface for full speed operation. Note that this unit only passes USB 3.0 data and power; it does not support video, audio, or alternate-mode signals through the USB-C connection. Ensure your peripheral does not require those functions.

Questions about this item

What USB standard does the Type-C female port run at, and what real-world speed does that cap the adapter at?

The female port is USB 3.1, but the male end is USB 3.0, so data tops out at the USB 3.0 rate of 5 Gbps.

What physical clearance does the adapter need, and will it block neighbouring ports on a laptop?

It is described as similar in size to a USB 2.0 Micro-B plug, so its compact body usually fits side-by-side with other ports.

How do I install it, and which orientation mistake do people make?

Plug the USB 3.0 Type-A male end into the host, then insert the Type-C cable into the female end; the reversible Type-C design means either orientation works, so there is no wrong way.
