Product Information
Full details
This 3-pack of ATEK USB-C to USB-A adapters is for users needing to connect modern USB-C peripherals to older USB-A ports. Its key benefit is enabling seamless connectivity between different USB generations with a durable, plug-and-play design. A potential caveat is that it does not support video output or high-speed data transfer beyond USB-A specifications. These adapters transform standard USB-A ports into USB-C sockets, featuring a heat-resistant shell and a non-slip fit for reliable connections. The set includes three adapters, all built with high-quality aluminum alloy and plastic for longevity.

FAQs
Can I use this adapter for video output?
No, this adapter only supports USB data transfer and charging. It does not support video output (DisplayPort Alternate Mode) through the USB-C port.

Will this adapter work with my iPhone?
Yes, if your iPhone uses a USB-C to USB-C cable, this adapter will allow you to connect it to a USB-A port on a computer or charger.
Does this adapter require any software installation?
No, this is a plug-and-play adapter. No drivers or software installation are needed.
Can I use multiple adapters at the same time?
Yes, you can use multiple adapters simultaneously, provided your device has enough USB-A ports and sufficient power output.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for specific warranty information, as it can vary.
Troubleshooting
Adapter not recognized by the computer
Ensure the adapter is fully seated in the USB-A port. Try a different USB-A port on your device. Restart your computer and try again. Verify the USB-C cable and device are functioning correctly.
Slow charging or data transfer speeds
The adapter's speed is limited by the USB-A port it is connected to. Connect to a higher-speed USB-A port (e.g., USB 3.0 or higher) if available. Ensure your USB-C cable supports the desired speed.
Device does not fit securely
Check for any obstructions in the USB-A port or on the adapter's connector. Gently ensure the adapter is inserted straight and fully into the port. If the fit is consistently loose, try a different adapter from the pack or a different USB-A port.
