Description

StarTech USB31CAADGCP USB-C to USB-A Adapter

Overview

The StarTech USB31CAADGCP is a passive adapter designed to bridge the gap between USB-C and USB-A interfaces. This compact adapter allows you to connect legacy USB-A peripherals, such as keyboards, mice, flash drives, or external hard drives, to modern devices equipped with a USB-C port. It's ideal for integrating existing equipment into newer systems without requiring new hardware, ensuring backward compatibility in environments like surveillance control rooms or IT workstations.

Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with any device featuring a USB 3.2 Type-C male port, enabling connection to USB Type-A female ports. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (formerly USB 3.0) speeds, delivering up to 5Gbps data transfer rates. This makes it suitable for connecting high-speed storage devices or other USB-A peripherals where bandwidth is critical. It functions with standard USB-A devices, including cameras, printers, and audio interfaces, provided the host device has a USB-C port.

Installation Notes

Operating temperature range is 0 to 40 C (32 to 104 F), with storage temperatures from -10 to 70 C (14 to 158 F). Humidity should be maintained between 10% and 90% non-condensing. The adapter draws 5V DC at up to 3A from the host USB-C port, though typical device power draw is significantly lower.
