Kaapelisovitin S/CONN 14-05031

The ShiverPeaks Cable Gender Changer S/CONN 14-05031 is a compact adapter that converts a USB 2.0 Type-A plug to a USB 3.1 Type-C receptacle, enabling connection of legacy USB-A devices to modern Type-C ports. Finished in white, the adapter is designed for simple, on-the-go use where a direct connection between differing USB generations is required. It provides a practical way to bridge older peripherals with newer host devices without extra cables or hubs.

Advantages

This gender changer offers straightforward compatibility between USB 2.0 Type-A devices and USB Type-C hosts, eliminating the need to replace existing peripherals. Its small form factor and lightweight construction make it easy to carry in a bag or pocket. The passive adapter maintains the physical and electrical orientation required for USB 2.0 data transfer and power delivery within the limits of the older standard, while the white finish blends unobtrusively with most device setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting USB 2.0 keyboards, mice and flash drives to laptops or phones with USB-C ports
• Temporarily accessing data from older USB-A external drives on Type-C-only devices
• Using legacy peripherals with docking stations or modern computers that provide only Type-C inputs

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB 2.0 Type-A (plug)
• Connector 2: USB 3.1 Type-C (receptacle)
• Color: White
• Form factor: Compact, passive adapter
• Supported data standard: USB 2.0 speeds (up to 480 Mbps) when used with USB-A devices

How to use

Insert the USB 2.0 Type-A plug of your device into the adapter’s USB-A receptacle or plug (depending on the adapter orientation), then connect the adapter’s USB-C end to the host device’s Type-C port. Ensure both devices are powered off or in a stable state when connecting if recommended by the device manufacturers. The adapter does not require drivers; the host should recognize standard USB 2.0 peripherals automatically. Note that transfer speeds and power delivery will be limited to the capabilities of the USB 2.0 device and the host port configuration.

Recommendations

Use the adapter for peripherals such as keyboards, mice and flash drives that operate within USB 2.0 specifications. Avoid using the adapter with devices that require USB 3.x performance, high-power charging beyond USB 2.0 limits, or with cables/accessories that rely on alternate modes (video, high-speed data). Store the adapter in a protective pouch to prevent dust and debris from entering the connector interfaces.
