Kabeladapter Bachmann 917.400 USB 3.0 A naar B zwart

The Bachmann 917.400 USB 3.0 A to B gender changer in black provides a compact and direct solution for reversing or adapting the gender of a USB 3.0 connection. It carries a USB 3.0 Type-A connector on one side and a USB 3.0 Type-B connector on the other, enabling compatibility between cables and devices that require opposite connector orientations. The adapter supports the USB 3.0 specification for high-speed data transfer while maintaining a small footprint suitable for desktop and mobile setups.

Advantages

This gender changer offers straightforward physical adaptation without the need for extra cabling or complex installation. Its USB 3.0 connectors preserve SuperSpeed transfer capability where supported, and the compact black housing minimises clutter while matching most office and home equipment. The passive adapter requires no power or drivers and is compatible with standard USB 3.0 A and B ports when used with appropriate cables and devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting a USB Type-B device (for example printers or scanners) to a cable with a Type-A plug
• Reversing plug orientation when existing cables and ports do not match
• Temporary or permanent desk setups where a compact gender changer reduces cable replacements

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the USB 3.0 Type-A plug of the connected cable into the adapter’s Type-A receptacle and then plug the adapter’s Type-B connector into the device’s Type-B port. Ensure connectors are aligned before applying gentle pressure until seated. Use with USB 3.0 compatible cables and devices to achieve SuperSpeed data rates; the adapter also supports backward compatibility with USB 2.0 devices and cables though transfer speeds will be limited by the slowest link in the chain.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use high-quality USB 3.0 cables and avoid excessive bending or strain near the connectors. Keep the adapter in a dry, dust-free environment and connect or disconnect with the host and peripheral powered down if recommended by the device manufacturer.
