I know the manufacturer answered otherwise but 5Gbps can only happen in a 9pined connection. **Q: can it transmit video from a USB C webcam?** A: You should be able to connect a USB-C webcam through the adapter to use with the computer, as long as the WebCam does not have a high power requirement. **Q: Can i connect my type-c soundcard to my old pc which only can support usb-2 and usb-3 with this adapter ?** A: As long as the sound card is USB 3, then it will work with the soundcard. Thanks for choosing Satechi!! Feel free to reach back out for any inquires. - Jim T. (Satechi Tech Support) **Q: How many pins is there inside the usb-a male plug?** A: In the standard USB A connector four pins are defined. Two pins are used for power and two pins are used for differential data transmission. If you look carefully at the connector you will see that the pins for the power connection (pin 1 and 4) are slightly longer. This is done on purpose to first connect the power supply when connecting a USB device, and only afterwards establish the data connection. With this sequence the chance that the driver or receiver ports of the data connection receive awkward and possible dangerous voltages is lowered substantially. Standard USB A connector pin names Pin Name Color Function 1 Vcc Red +5V supply voltage 2 D- White Data- signal line 3 D+ Green Data+ signal line 4 GND Black Supply ground ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good *by V***H on 15 February 2024* It’s does it’s job, value for money ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent *by A***R on 10 December 2022* Excellent ### ⭐⭐⭐ Good material with bad tolerances *by A***. on 18 December 2020* I’m not sure if this was an issue with only my unit or an issue product wide, but do check the housing of the adapter when you receive it.
