Adattatore di genere S/CONN 14-05016

The ShiverPeaks Cable Gender Changer S/CONN 14-05016 adapts a USB 3.1 C plug to a USB 2.0 A socket, providing a compact solution for interfacing newer USB-C devices with older A-type cables and ports. It features nickel-plated contacts for reliable electrical contact and corrosion resistance, housed in a silver-colored casing designed for everyday use. The adapter supports device-to-device connectivity where a physical change of connector gender is required without signal conversion.

Advantages

The gender changer offers a compact form factor that saves space and keeps connections tidy. Nickel-plated contacts improve durability and ensure consistent data and power transmission over repeated insertions. Its neutral silver finish integrates unobtrusively with a variety of devices and cable assemblies. The adapter requires no drivers or configuration and is ready to use when plugged in.

Suitable for

• Connecting USB-C equipped devices to USB-A cables or ports
• Adapting legacy chargers, hubs or peripherals with USB-A plugs
• Temporary conversions during travel or equipment changes
• Workspaces where different generations of USB connectors coexist

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB 3.1 Type C (plug)
• Connector 2: USB 2.0 Type A (socket)
• Contact plating: nickel-plated contacts
• Colour: silver
• Function: gender changer / connector adaptor (passive)

How to use

Insert the USB-C plug into the device that provides or accepts a USB-C connection, then insert the USB-A plug from the cable into the adapter's USB-A socket. Ensure connectors are aligned and fully seated; no software or power cycling is normally required. For best results, use with cables and ports that match the adapter's physical and electrical capabilities—this adapter changes connector gender and physical interface only and does not upgrade a USB 2.0 connection to USB 3.1 speeds.

Recommendations

Use the adapter for mechanical compatibility and short-term connection needs. Avoid using the adapter in environments with high moisture or mechanical stress. For transfers requiring USB 3.x throughput or advanced power delivery, use native cables and ports designed for those specifications rather than relying on a passive gender changer.
