Use the USB-A port of this adapter with flash drives, cameras, and other devices that connect to USB-A for data transfer or charging. It supports USB 3 data-transfer speeds up to 5Gbps. For example, you can connect the Apple Lightning to USB Cable to this port to sync and charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod with your Mac. I have a bit of an issue where I have a lack of ports on my MacBook Air with which to connect to everything I need to connect to. I have one Thunderbolt port which I need to use to connect to my wired network. The location I am in doesn't lend itself well to a wireless connection. This iClever USB docking station can drive 2 monitors at 1080P all by using your USB 3.0 port on your computer (or USB 2.0)! Amazon now has an updated versio.

Hi,


I have a 2015 12 inch MacBook and I was wondering if the following way of connecting an external monitor and keeping power would work:

- 5 in 1 Dongle (2 x USB 3.0 ports)

- Then connect a USB 3.0 to USB C cable to the USB 3.0 port on my dongle

- Then connect to female to female USB C connection part.

- Then connect my USB C to HDMI adapter to my 1080p monitor.


My question, would this work. The only thing I am missing at the moment is the USB C female to female adapter. But I just want to make sure this would work.
