The ShiverPeaks USB A to USB C Adapter 14-05033 converts a standard USB Type-A port into a USB Type-C connector while supporting USB 3.1 data transfer speeds up to 10 Gbps. This compact adapter enables connection of modern USB-C devices—such as external storage, peripherals and smartphones—to legacy USB-A hosts for data synchronization and file transfer. Its small form factor makes it suitable for portable use and easy integration into laptop bags, docking stations or desktop setups.

Advantages

The adapter provides high-speed USB 3.1 transfer performance up to 10 Gbps, allowing faster file copy and sync compared with USB 2.0 connections. It offers plug-and-play compatibility with standard USB-A ports and requires no driver installation for most operating systems. The compact and lightweight design ensures convenient portability while maintaining a reliable physical connection between USB-A hosts and USB-C devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting USB-C flash drives and external SSDs to computers with USB-A ports
• Attaching USB-C peripherals (keyboards, mice, card readers) to older PCs and laptops
• Transferring photos, videos and documents between smartphones with USB-C and USB-A hosts

Key specifications

• Interface conversion: USB Type-A (host) to USB Type-C (device)
• Data standard: USB 3.1, up to 10 Gbps
• Compatibility: supports standard USB-C data devices (storage and peripherals)
• Form factor: compact, portable adapter design
• Power: supports standard USB power levels for connected devices (subject to host port capability)

How to use

Insert the USB Type-A connector of the adapter into an available USB-A port on your computer or charger. Connect the USB-C cable or device to the adapter’s USB-C receptacle. The connected device should be recognized automatically by most modern operating systems; use your file manager or device software to access content or perform transfers. For best performance, use with USB 3.1-compliant cables and ports and avoid using hubs or extensions that do not support required data rates.

Recommendations

To achieve the advertised 10 Gbps speeds, connect the adapter to a USB 3.1 (or higher) host port and use a USB-C cable and device that also support USB 3.1. If a connected device requires higher power than the host port can supply, use an externally powered hub or connect to a port with sufficient power delivery capability.
