Cable Gender Changer Satechi ST-TAUCM USB-A to USB-C Grey

Transform your standard USB port into a USB-C connection with the Satechi Type-A to Type-C Adapter. This ultra-compact adapter lets you use USB-C devices and cables with legacy USB-A ports, avoiding the need to replace older peripherals and making it easy to connect Type-C smartphones, tablets and accessories through a female USB-C port.

Advantages

The adapter is small and portable, provides a simple plug-and-play solution, and preserves compatibility between USB-A hosts and USB-C devices. It allows fast and stable data and power connections when used within the limits of the host port, and reduces the number of different cables you need to carry.

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB-A (male) to USB-C (female)
• Compatibility: allows USB-C peripherals to connect to legacy USB-A ports
• Form factor: ultra-compact adapter
• Use: data and power transfer according to host port capabilities

How to use

Plug the adapter into a standard USB-A port on your computer or charger, then insert a USB-C cable or device into the adapter’s female USB-C port. The connection is plug-and-play; functionality (data transfer speed and charging power) depends on the specifications of the host USB-A port and the connected USB-C device.

Recommendations

For best results, use the adapter with devices and cables that match the power and data capabilities of your USB-A host port. Do not expect higher USB-C power delivery or USB 3.x speeds if the host port is limited to lower standards.
