USB-C 3.1 90° Angle Adapter ShiverPeaks 13-40004 S/CONN

The USB-C 3.1 90° Angle Adapter ShiverPeaks 13-40004 S/CONN is a compact right-angle connector designed to change the exit direction of a USB-C cable while maintaining USB 3.1 data and power compatibility. It provides a 90-degree orientation that helps position cables closer to the device body, reducing protrusion and minimizing mechanical stress on the port and cable during everyday use. The adapter is intended for situations where space is limited or where cable routing and connector alignment are important.

Advantages

This right-angle adapter reduces bending stress at the connector and helps protect device ports from wear caused by frequent insertion, removal or sideways tension. Its compact design enables neater cable routing behind furniture, in vehicle installations or next to wall-mounted devices. The adapter preserves USB-C 3.1 functionality for charging and data transfer when used with compatible hosts and peripherals, and it is simple to attach without tools.

Suitable for

• Devices with recessed or side-mounted USB-C ports where straight plugs obstruct placement
• Laptops, tablets and smartphones used in tight workstations or docking setups
• In-car installations and wall-mounted chargers where cable clearance is limited
• Equipment subject to frequent cable movement to reduce connector wear

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB-C right-angle (90°)
• USB specification compatibility: USB 3.1 data and power signaling
• Orientation: changes plug exit direction to a right angle for improved cable routing
• Form factor: compact, low-profile adapter designed to minimize protrusion
• Intended use: supports data transfer and charging with USB-C 3.1 compatible devices

How to use

Insert the adapter into the device’s USB-C port until it seats securely, then plug the USB-C cable into the adapter’s receptacle. Ensure the connected cable and host device are compatible with USB-C 3.1 for intended data rates and charging behavior. Remove the adapter by gently pulling the assembly straight out to avoid sideways force on the port. Periodically inspect the connector and port for debris and clean with compressed air if necessary.

Recommendations

Use the adapter when you need to redirect cable routing or reduce stress on a USB-C port; avoid applying excessive torque or bending the cable at the adapter connection. For optimal performance, pair with cables and devices that support USB 3.1 specifications and follow device manufacturer guidelines for charging and data transfer.
