Kabeladapter ShiverPeaks BS14-05015

The ShiverPeaks BS14-05015 cable gender changer converts between a USB 3.1 Type-C connector and a USB 3.0 Type-A connector, enabling direct connection between devices with differing USB port types. Nickel-plated contacts ensure reliable electrical contact and reduced corrosion, while the silver housing provides a compact, neutral appearance that integrates with most setups. The adapter supports standard USB data transfer between Type-C and Type-A devices without adding active electronics or power conversion.

Advantages

This gender changer provides a simple physical adapter solution for connecting USB Type-C and Type-A devices where cable or port type mismatch occurs. Nickel-plated contacts improve conductivity and resistance to wear compared with untreated contacts. Its compact form factor allows use in tight spaces and ease of transport, and the silver finish offers a discreet look that matches a variety of devices and cables.

Suitable for

• Connecting peripherals with USB Type-A plugs to devices with USB Type-C ports
• Adapting legacy USB 3.0 accessories to newer USB-C hosts (data only)
• Temporary connections when replacing or reconfiguring cables and hubs

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB 3.1 Type-C
• Connector 2: USB 3.0 Type-A
• Contact plating: nickel-plated contacts for improved conductivity
• Colour: silver housing
• Function: passive gender changer for USB data connections

How to use

Insert the USB 3.0 Type-A plug of your peripheral or cable into the adapter’s Type-A receptacle and then insert the adapter’s USB 3.1 Type-C plug into the host device’s Type-C port. Ensure connectors are aligned and seated firmly but without excessive force. This adapter is intended for passive data connections; verify device compatibility for features that require active negotiation such as certain power-delivery profiles or alternate modes.

Recommendations

Use the adapter for data transfer and peripheral connections where passive USB bridging is sufficient. Avoid using the adapter as a substitute for cables or adapters that are specified to provide power delivery or video alternate mode unless the connected devices explicitly support such passive operation. Store the adapter in a dry environment and avoid exposing it to mechanical stress to preserve contact integrity.
