Kábel gender changer S/CONN 14-05018

The ShiverPeaks Cable Gender Changer S/CONN 14-05018 converts a USB 2.0 A connection to a USB 3.1 C interface in a compact, black adapter. It provides a physical connection between legacy USB-A cables or ports and modern USB-C devices, enabling data transfer and power delivery where port types differ. The adapter is designed for straightforward insertion and reliable contact between the two connector types.

Advantages

The adapter delivers simple, tool-free conversion from USB 2.0 A to USB 3.1 C while maintaining a low-profile, durable housing in black. It enables continued use of existing USB-A cables with USB-C devices and supports charging and data transfer within the limits of the USB 2.0 standard on the A side. The compact form factor makes it easy to carry and store alongside other mobile or desktop accessories.

Suitable for

• Connecting USB-A cables to USB-C smartphones, tablets and laptops
• Adapting legacy peripherals (keyboards, mice, external drives) for use with USB-C ports
• Temporary or travel situations where a direct USB-A to USB-C cable is not available

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB 2.0 A (female/male as applicable for gender changer)
• Connector 2: USB 3.1 C
• Product colour: Black
• Supports data transfer and device charging constrained by USB 2.0 signalling on the A side
• Compact, low-profile housing for portable use

How to use

Insert the USB-A end of an existing cable or plug the adapter into a USB-A port, then connect the USB-C plug to the target device. Ensure connectors are aligned and fully seated to establish a stable connection. Data transfer speeds and charging current will be determined by the lowest-rated component in the connection chain (typically the USB 2.0 A side or the attached cable).

Recommendations

Use the adapter for compatibility and convenience rather than as a permanent high-performance solution; for faster data rates or higher power delivery, use a native USB-C cable and port designed for USB 3.x or USB PD. Avoid forcing connectors and disconnect by pulling the connector body rather than the cable to prolong service life.
