USB-C Receptacle for 10 Gbps Signal Paths
The Amphenol FCI 10137066-00021LF is a USB-C (USB TYPE-C) receptacle with 24 contacts, designed for the USB 3.2 Gen 2 specification — that's 10 Gbps SuperSpeed+ data rates over the reversible interface. The 24-contact layout handles the full complement of USB 3.2 signal pairs, power delivery channels, and sideband use lines, all within the standard USB-C footprint. The gold contact finish on both signal and power pins resists fretting corrosion over that cycle life, so contact resistance stays stable through the connector's service life. The stainless steel shell provides mechanical robustness and EMC shielding.
This receptacle supports both surface mount right-angle and through-hole mounting — the SMT pads handle the signal and power connections, while the through-hole posts provide additional mechanical retention to the PCB. The stainless steel shell adds further rigidity, important for a connector that sees 10,000 mate cycles without loosening on the board. Termination is solder for both the SMT and through-hole variants.
