Tripp Lite Eaton USB 3.0 Adapter Converter USB-C to USB-A, Female-to-Male, 5 Gbps Data Transfer
Older computer cases and standard desk docks often lack the newer type of port. This compact adapter bridges that gap, letting you link modern phones, tablets, or storage drives directly to an existing jack. It handles daily file syncs and power delivery without demanding extra desk space.

How this one is built
Reversible jack design
The female port accepts your cable plug right side up or upside down. You plug in without looking behind the tower or fighting the connector orientation, making quick changes at a workstation straightforward.
Gold plated pins
Inside both ends, plated contacts maintain clean metal-to-metal continuity across thousands of cycles. They resist surface corrosion and maintain steady signal quality during heavy file transfers between drives and host machines.
Legacy port fit
The male end slides straight into standard jacks found on older towers, keyboards, and monitor hubs. It works with earlier generation ports too, stepping down data speed to match whatever host machine you plug into.
Solid molded housing
A compact outer shell gives you enough grip to pull the adapter free without stressing the computer board. It sits flush against the panel so neighboring ports on the backplate remain accessible for other gear.
