How to use

Insert the USB-A end into the USB-A port of the host device or power adapter, and connect the USB-C end to the target USB-C device or cable. Ensure both connectors are fully seated to establish a stable connection. For data transfer, confirm that the host device recognizes the connected device and follow the operating system’s standard file-transfer procedures. For charging, use a power adapter with appropriate output for the connected device.

Recommendations

To maintain optimal performance, avoid exposing the adapter to excessive bending or pulling, and disconnect by gripping the connector rather than the cable. Use with USB-A ports that supply sufficient power for charging and with cables and devices that support USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds to achieve expected transfer rates.
