Stacked USB-A Receptacle for Panel-Mount Applications
The FCI 72309-5044BLF is a stacked USB-A (USB TYPE-A) receptacle from the 72309 series, designed for USB 2.0 applications. It has two ports and 8 contacts in a right-angle through-hole package.
Right-angle orientation means the USB ports sit parallel to the PCB, so the connector body overhangs the board edge — plan your enclosure cutout accordingly. The horizontal mounting feature is key: the ports face outward from the board edge, not upward.
Contact Plating and Mating Durability
Contacts are finished with gold over the GXT™ underplate.
Shielding and Compliance
The shielded shell, made from copper alloy, provides EMI containment for the differential data pairs — important for passing FCC radiated-emission limits in commercial equipment. RoHS compliance is confirmed on the line.
