How to connect USB 3.0 device to iMac 2011?

I've bought Logitech Brio webcam which supports 4K resolution when connected to USB 3.0 port. However, iMac 2011 only has USB 2.0 ports which means I can only use this webcam in 1080p30fps mode. Is there's any adapters that can solve this problem? Thanks.

There is no such device.  The Apple adapter is for Thunderbolt 3

to USB-C.

There are these:

Kanex Thunderbolt to eSATA + USB 3.0 Adapter - Apple

Kanex Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit Ethernet + USB 3.0 Adapter - Apple

but they are getting "less than stellar" reviews.

Or a full blown Thunderbolt dock which gets quite expensive.

No.

I've used the Kanex TB to esata + USB3 adaptor on my 2011 iMac for two years with no issues. The connector cable is kinda short but still doable. I've used it connected to a Lacie LBD and or a Caldigit TB dock.
