Your Type-C laptop or phone has no USB-A port, but the USB-A ports on your charger or laptop still work. This compact adapter lets Type-C cables and gear plug straight in, with no drivers to install. Black or white, one piece, built for the desk or the bag.
Plug and play USB-A to Type-C adapter that works without drivers
- Older USB-A drives and cables do not fit newer Type-C devices
- Need to install drivers for a simple adapter
- Confusing port direction
Keep your USB-A gear. Connect it to any Type-C device.
Your USB-A drives and cables no longer fit your new phone or laptop. This compact adapter bridges the gap, with no drivers to install.
Plug it in and start working right away

Works without drivers
Push the USB-A end into a free USB-A port on a laptop or charger and it is ready. Nothing to download, no install prompts, no setup screen. Your Type-C cable connects the moment you plug it in.

Clear direction, first try
The A-to-C arrow is printed right on the housing, so you see which end goes where before you push. The USB-A end goes into the port on your laptop or charger, and the Type-C port takes your cable.

Blue SuperSpeed contacts
The silver USB-A 3.0 plug carries blue SuperSpeed contacts, the usual marker of a USB 3.0 connection. Real transfer speed depends on the cable and drive on the other end, so pair it with a USB 3.0 cable for large file moves.
Follow the arrow, then plug in
- 1Check the arrow
Find the printed A-to-C arrow on the housing so you know which end is which.
- 2Plug the USB-A end into a USB-A port
Push the silver plug into a free USB-A port on your laptop, charger or power source. Line it up straight and press gently.
- 3Connect your Type-C cable or device
Plug your Type-C cable or accessory into the adapter's Type-C port, then check that your device responds.
- 4Test before large transfers
Copy a small file first, and keep a backup of anything important before moving it through an adapter.

Questions and answers
Yes, with any Type-C device that accepts a standard USB-C cable. The adapter only changes the connector, so the USB-A port on your charger or laptop is the other end of the chain.
The plug has blue SuperSpeed contacts, the usual marker for USB 3.0. Real transfer speed depends on the cable, the drive and the port at each end, so an older USB-A drive will run at its own speed.
No. It is plug and play, so there is nothing to download. Plug it in and your computer or phone reads the connection.
Follow the printed A-to-C arrow. The USB-A plug goes into a USB-A port, and the Type-C port takes your cable.
The housing is glossy plastic with a silver USB-A metal plug and clear printed markings. Compared with bare generic converters, the metal plug and clean seating are what you pay for. Do not force it at an angle.
For a single USB-A to Type-C job, one small adapter takes no desk space and needs no power. A hub makes more sense when you need several ports at once.
