Is a "USB3 A Female" to "Micro B Male" OTG adapter w/ 5gbps data possible?

[shushi_boi]

TL;DR

Is it possible for a USB A 3.0 Female to Micro B Male OTG adapter to transfer data from the USB 3.0 source to the Micro B source at 5gbps speeds, and can the Micro B receive and process all of that data from it's Micro B port?

Here's a link to the device, and a picture from it that claims this,

Is this possible, or is this a sham?

*EDIT*

I found another similar adapter on Amazon if anyone was interested in examining that one as well,

I only looked at this one. Nowhere does it claim 5Gb/s xfer rate.

Thank you for your response to the second device, although I didn't see the amazon one mention this feature, I wasn't sure so I thought it would be worth mentioning as well since it is a USB A 3.0 female to a Micro B male adapter like the first device.

I'm starting to think that the first one is a sham, in the sense that it is impossible for a Micro B port to process more than 480mbps speeds, since the Micro B devices aren't meant to process higher speeds (which I think sort of defeats the purpose of the first device, and misleading since I don't think a Micro B device can make use of the 5gbps data being fed to it), well that's at least what I think (I'm not an expert in this topic, but that's my best educated guess).

What is your opinion on the first device? Am I correct in my assessment?

Sounds right to me, although I've only looked at the spec for the CABLES, which are limited as you say, and though that maybe a direct connection could do better. Still, seems unlikely since if a Micro B device could do better you'd expect the cables to be routinely at that high level.

5 Gbps transfer rate! You think you will get such a device for $4? Moreover it is made in China. This definitely seems to be a sham.

USB3 has 9 pins which are required for 5GHz bandwidth, there is a USB 3 Micro B connector, and a USB 3 Micro B socket will (ISTR) accept a Normal 5-pin Micro B plug but the plug will definitely not fit a normal Micro B socket, and it does not look like the one in the picture.

Any hardware connected with the 5 pins shown in the normal Micro B plug in the picture is going to be limited to 480MHz USB2.

But in any case you should note that (i) the 5GHz claim is not made in text, only in a picture, so has no credibility, and (ii) even the picture contains a disclaimer which separates the 5GHz statement from the item,
