One-Piece Adapter Connects Computers, Printers, Modems and Other USB Equipment This palm-sized USB adapter connects your computer, laptop or other compatible USB-A device, such as a Chromebook or Surface Pro tablet, to a USB-A keyboard, printer, portable hard drive, flash drive, patch panel or other peripheral. It supports USB 3.0 data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps, which is 10 times faster than USB 2.0. The fully molded piece is small enough to carry in your pocket, purse or laptop bag. Up-Angle USB-A Port Makes Connecting and Disconnecting Easier in Tight Spaces The female USB connector is designed at a 90-degree up angle, which makes it easier to reach in from above to connect cables where space is at a premium. This helps you, for instance, save space in your workspace by letting you push your PC flush against the wall or the back of a cabinet. Instead of leaving space in the rear for protruding USB cables, the U324-000-UP allows you to connect cables parallel to your computer.
