This adapter converts a USB-A male plug into a 5-pin screw terminal block, making it easy to connect bare wires to a USB port without soldering. Just loosen the terminal screws, insert your stranded or solid-core wire, and tighten. All five pins are clearly labelled (VCC, D−, D+, GND, and Shield/Sleeve).
The terminal block is removable from the USB connector body, and the screw connections are more durable than soldered joints for prototyping and custom cable builds.
