There is no wiring diagram with this product. Is it possible to get one?

They use the standard pinout for USB connectors:

Yes, but the one from Adafruit has pins on the top and bottom. Which number goes with which pin?

They're straight-through connections: the side with three contacts connects to pins 1, 3, and 5. The other side with two contacts connects to 2 and 4.

Thanks. Adafruit should still put a technical drawing with the product to show what pin is what and from what direction you're looking to identify them.

Are the pins in order from left to right when I am looking at the tabs that I would solder the wires too?
