Product Information

Full details

This ATEK USB 3.1 Type C to USB A adapter Value Pack is designed for users needing to connect modern USB-C devices to older USB-A ports. Its key benefit is providing a versatile and fast 5Gbps data transfer bridge, allowing seamless integration of new peripherals with existing hardware. A potential caveat is that it only converts USB-C female to USB-A male, not the other way around. This pack includes three compact adapters for charging and data transfer, featuring durable aluminum alloy and plastic construction.

How many adapters are included in the pack?

This is a Value Pack that includes three USB 3.1 Type C to USB A adapters.

What materials are the adapters made from?

The adapters are constructed from a combination of high-quality aluminum alloy and durable plastic.

Can I use this to connect my iPhone 15 to my old laptop?

Yes, if your iPhone 15 uses a USB-C cable and your laptop has a USB-A port, this adapter will allow you to connect them for data transfer or charging.

Will this adapter work with my Apple Watch?

Troubleshooting

Adapter not recognized by computer

Ensure the adapter is fully inserted into both the USB-C cable and the USB-A port. Try a different USB-A port or computer to rule out port issues. Verify the USB-C cable is functioning correctly.

Slow data transfer speeds

Confirm that both the device, the USB-C cable, and the USB-A port on the host device support USB 3.1 speeds (5Gbps). Older USB 2.0 ports will limit speeds to 480Mbps.

Device not charging

Check that the USB-A port is providing sufficient power and that the USB-C cable is functioning correctly. Try a different USB-A power source (e.g., a different charger or wall adapter).
