InLine USB4 adapter, USB-C male/female, aluminium, grey

The InLine USB4 adapter USB-C male/female aluminium grey provides a compact solution for extending or adapting USB-C connections. With a USB-C male plug and a USB-C female receptacle, the adapter supports USB4 Gen 4 data protocols in a durable aluminium housing finished in grey. It is designed to maintain high-speed data transfer and reliable signal integrity between compatible USB-C devices while offering a small form factor suitable for mobile and desktop setups.

Advantages

The aluminium casing improves durability and thermal dissipation, while the USB4 Gen 4 compatibility enables higher bandwidth and lower latency compared with earlier USB specifications. The reversible USB-C connectors simplify connection without orientation concerns. Its compact design minimizes space usage and reduces strain on device ports when used as an inline adapter.

Suitable for

• Connecting USB-C peripherals to hosts with USB-C ports
• Extending a short USB-C cable or adapting a fixed cable orientation
• High-speed data transfer tasks between compatible devices
• Use with laptops, tablets, docking stations and external storage devices supporting USB4

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB-C (male)
• Connector 2: USB-C (female)
• USB version: USB4 Gen 4
• Housing material: aluminium
• Product colour: grey

How to use

Insert the USB-C male connector into the host or cable end you wish to adapt. Plug the USB-C device or cable into the female receptacle of the adapter. Ensure both connected devices support USB4 Gen 4 to achieve the highest data rates; otherwise the connection will negotiate to the highest mutually supported mode. Handle the adapter by its housing and avoid excessive bending near the connectors to prolong service life.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, pair the adapter with cables and devices that explicitly support USB4 Gen 4 and use quality USB-C cables rated for high bandwidth. Avoid using the adapter under heavy mechanical load or in environments with excessive moisture or dust. If you experience reduced speeds, check device compatibility and cable quality.
