Got this to go between an M.2 SSD external case (which only came w/ a USB-C to USB-C cord) and computers that don't have USB-C. Data rate support of full USB 3.1 gen2 was important to avoid limiting the SSDs put in the case and lots of adapters force it down to lower speeds, even USB2.0.
One day a USB C gen 3 connection failed causing a tethering program to crash as only gen 2 was available. I used this adapter to connect to a USB A gen 3 port to get the job done. It turned out that Microsoft (in their inimitable way) had replaced the manufacturers USB C driver with a generic driver during an update that caused the ASMedia 3142 to provide Gen 2 service only.
It just works. Unlike the other USB-C to USB-A adapters listed this one supports the USB-C higher speeds.
With tech companies constantly changing the portals having reliable adapters is a must. I found this one to be quite reliable.
As advertised, does just what it is supposed to to do.
... from having to get two cigarette lighter adapters for my car
I use this to tether my old laptop to the R3. It seems to work just fine. I don't use it often.
Did what it was supposed to do.
