Overview

The Adafruit 4260 is a panel-mount pass-through adapter featuring a USB Type-C receptacle on the exterior face and a Micro-B USB receptacle on the interior. It is designed to provide a clean, professional external interface for enclosures while allowing internal connection to legacy Micro-B development boards or peripherals. The round bulkhead design includes a rear-side nut for secure mounting in standard drill holes.

Why Choose This Part

This adapter offers a solderless solution for adding external USB connectivity to an enclosure, saving significant assembly time. The round 30mm diameter housing is easier to mount than rectangular cutouts, requiring only a standard circular hole. It bridges the gap between modern USB-C cabling and the massive ecosystem of existing Micro-B hardware.

Applications

Enclosure External Interface
Provides a modern USB-C external port for projects housed in custom 3D-printed or laser-cut enclosures.
Legacy Hardware Modernization
Allows engineers to upgrade the external physical interface of a device to USB-C without redesigning internal PCBs that use Micro-B connectors.
Industrial Control Panels
Serves as a rugged bulkhead connector for programming or powering equipment inside sealed cabinets.
Prototyping Stations
Used in test fixtures to provide a standardized power and data entry point that is easy to replace if worn out.
