Overview

The USB4500-03-1-A is a high-durability USB 2.0 Type-C receptacle designed for board-edge mounting with a cutout profile. It features 24 positions (including 16 active and 8 dummy pins) and is rated for a high mechanical lifespan of 20,000 mating cycles. Its hybrid surface-mount and through-hole design provides robust mechanical retention for demanding consumer and industrial applications.

Why Choose This Part

This connector offers a significant lifespan advantage with a durability rating of 20,000 cycles, doubling the standard USB-C requirement. The board-edge cutout design allows for a lower PCB profile, while the combination of SMT leads and through-hole solder retention tabs ensures superior resistance to mechanical stress and shearing.

Applications

Slim Consumer Electronics
Ideal for thin profile devices where a board-edge cutout mounting helps reduce the overall height of the connector assembly.
Industrial Charging Ports
Used in rugged handhelds or panels requiring a high mating cycle count of up to 20,000 cycles for frequent use.
Legacy USB 2.0 Integration
Perfect for modernizing the physical interface of legacy hardware to USB-C while maintaining standard USB 2.0 data rates.
IoT Gateways
Acts as a reliable power and configuration port for smart home or industrial edge devices.
