USB micro B Receptacle for Board-Edge and Mid-Mount Designs
It's the mid-mount variant in the 10103593 series, designed for horizontal board-edge or cutout mounting with a combination of surface-mount and through-hole, right-angle terminations. The shielded steel/stainless shell handles EMI, and the gold-plated contacts are rated for 10000 mating cycles — built for frequent plug/unplug duty in portable equipment, instrumentation, and data interfaces.
The 100VAC voltage rating is generous for a USB connector, covering industrial or telecom environments where the bus voltage may be higher than standard 5V USB. The 10000-cycle mating life comes from the gold contact finish, which resists fretting corrosion over repeated insertions — a real advantage for field-serviceable equipment or test jigs.
This receptacle mounts horizontally with a mid-mount feature — the contact tails sit at the board edge, allowing the USB plug to exit parallel to the PCB. The termination is solder, with a combination of surface-mount pads and through-hole, right-angle pins for mechanical retention.
