The DELOCK Easy 45 USB Type-A 5 Gbps module provides a compact interface for connecting or extending USB Type-A ports. Featuring a blue Type-A connector on both ends, this module supports data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps where USB 3.x host and device ports are available. Its small form factor is intended for use in docking stations, custom installations or as a simple extension to maintain full USB 3.x performance between compatible devices.

Advantages

This module preserves USB 3.x transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps and uses standard Type-A connectors for broad compatibility with existing USB Type-A cables and ports. Its compact design simplifies installation in tight spaces and reduces cable clutter in docking stations or enclosures.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the module between an existing USB Type-A port and a compatible Type-A cable or device so that both Type-A connections sit securely in their receptacles. Ensure connected host and peripheral ports support USB 3.x to achieve the maximum 5 Gbps transfer rate; otherwise the connection will operate at the highest mutually supported speed. No software installation is required for standard operating systems that support USB devices. Verify firm seating of connectors to maintain signal integrity and avoid intermittent connections.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use high-quality USB 3.x Type-A cables and ensure both host and device ports support USB 3.x. Avoid tight cable bends near the module and secure the module in the installation to prevent mechanical stress on connectors. If full 5 Gbps speeds are required, verify that connected devices and host controllers advertise USB 3.x performance.
