The adaptor allows the Raspberry Pi 4 to be used with a Pi Micro USB power supply (or DC barrel jack) whilst allowing access to the OTG USB.

USB Type-A (data and power) <> USB Data (Micro USB) and Power (Micro USB/Barrel jack).

USB Type A	Micro USB (PWR)	Micro USB (USB)	Barrel Jack
5V	5V		5V (tip)
D-		D-
D+		D+
GND	GND	GND	GND

The barrel jack accepts 5.5 mm jacks (2.1/2.5 pin) providing 5V.

To use the adaptor with the Raspberry Pi 4 you need.

A short USB-C to USB-A cable between Pi4 and the adaptor board.
Micro USB cable to access USB OTG Data.
Power via either Micro USB Power Supply or Barrel jack (5v 2.4 Amp or higher PSU).

(Raspberry Pi/USB Cables/PSU/etc. not included)

Short cables are advised as the voltage drop over longer cables may cause problems.

Using a Cluster HAT node image (p1/p2/p3/p4) you can plug the USB data into a computer (Raspberry Pi, Win10, etc.) and access the system via either USB Gadget Ethernet or Serial Console.

We also have a USB Type-C version of this adaptor available.

Works Great!

This adapter is exactly what I needed to setup my Raspberry Pi 4's for use with the Pi KVM project. Works great with the MicroUSB cables I have lying around! I would love to see a USB-C variant in the future but this is a fantastic solution to power the Pi and drive data.

As advertised!

Exactly as advertised. I am using these for Pi KVM project where I need both power and data lines. This helps to consolidate and make everything much cleaner and effortless. Ordered extras for spare projects I was so pleased with it!
