Cable Gender Changer DINIC CB-A-2113 Type C C7 Black

The DINIC CB-A-2113 Type C to C7 cable gender changer by EFB Elektronik is a compact adapter that converts a C7 (figure-8) connector into a Type C connector or vice versa, enabling compatibility between devices and power cords with different connector types. Its black finish and low-profile design make it discreet and convenient for use with laptops, small appliances, external power supplies and portable electronics where a direct fit between C7 and Type C connections is required.

Advantages

This cable gender changer provides a simple mechanical solution to adapt between Type C and C7 connectors without modifying cables or equipment. The adapter is lightweight and easy to install, maintaining a secure electrical connection while minimizing additional bulk. Its neutral black colour blends with most power cords and devices, and the solid construction offers stable contact and reliable performance for everyday use.

Suitable for

• Connecting power supplies that use a C7 (figure-8) connector to cables or devices with a Type C inlet
• Temporary cable adaptations in office or home audio-visual setups
• Travel kits where one compact adapter replaces carrying multiple cables
• Electronics repair benches for testing equipment with mismatched connectors

Key specifications

• Connector types: Type C ↔ C7 (figure-8)
• Colour: black
• Design: compact, low-profile adapter
• Use: passive gender changer (no active electronics)
• Contact configuration: two-pin AC connection suitable for compatible mains voltages

How to use

Align the adapter so the Type C connector mates with the corresponding inlet and the C7 connector mates with the cable or device plug. Insert firmly until the connectors engage and the connection feels secure. To disconnect, grip the adapter body rather than pulling on the cable to avoid stress on the connector. Verify that the connected device and cable are rated for the local mains voltage and that polarity and grounding (if applicable) match local safety requirements before powering on.

Recommendations

Use the adapter only for its intended purpose as a passive mechanical gender changer. Do not use it with damaged cables or connectors. Ensure compatibility with the device’s power rating and local electrical standards. Avoid exposing the adapter to moisture, excessive heat or mechanical strain to maintain safe and reliable operation.
