The Aerpro APCHUSB1 is a mini USB to USB-A male retention adaptor with a 110mm cable. It is used when replacing the factory head unit in vehicles fitted with a mini USB factory connection, allowing the factory USB socket to remain functional after the aftermarket head unit is installed.
The APCHUSB1 bridges the connection between the factory mini USB socket in the vehicle and the standard USB-A input on an aftermarket head unit. Without this adaptor, the factory USB port in the centre console or dash would be non-functional after the factory radio is replaced. The 110mm cable provides enough length to route neatly behind the dash during installation.
Retains factory USB socket: Keeps the factory-fitted USB port functional after an aftermarket head unit is installed.
Mini USB to USB-A male connection: Adapts the factory mini USB socket to the standard USB-A input used on most aftermarket head units.
110mm cable length.
Suits vehicles with a factory mini USB connection.

Will the APCHUSB1 work with any aftermarket head unit? The APCHUSB1 connects to a standard USB-A input, which is found on most aftermarket head units. Confirm your head unit has a USB-A input before purchasing. Contact us for fitment advice if required.
