Castles Technology 41000397-FP USB-A to USB-C Cable

Connect a USB-A host port to a USB-C device port with a male-to-male cable format suited to equipment that uses those two connector styles. The USB-A end mates with a standard rectangular Type-A receptacle, while the USB-C end mates with the compact, reversible Type-C receptacle used on compatible devices. This connector pairing avoids relying on a separate adapter when the host side is Type-A and the device side is USB-C. Castles Technology 41000397-FP provides a direct physical connection for point-of-sale and payment environments where a compatible USB-A-equipped host must attach to a USB-C-equipped peripheral. Check the port labels and connector gender at both ends before selecting the cable: both ends are male, so each must connect to a female USB receptacle. The cable does not change the connector type at either endpoint; it joins the two unlike USB connector formats directly. Use this cable where the installed equipment documentation calls for a USB Type-A male to USB Type-C male connection. Its defining characteristic is the A-to-C connector arrangement, rather than an A-to-A or C-to-C layout. That distinction matters at the equipment edge, where connector shape and gender determine whether a cable can be connected without an adapter. Keep the cable route clear of strain at the plugs and avoid forcing either connector into an unmatched port.
