The FCI 74233-100LF is a USB-A (USB TYPE-A) and Power combo plug — eight contacts in a single shielded shell that carries both a standard USB 2.0 signal pair and additional power contacts. The teal insulation color visually flags it as the combo variant rather than a standard USB plug.
Dual Current Rating — Which Contacts Carry What
The 74233-100LF carries two current ratings: 1.5A per contact on the signal pins and 3A per contact on the power pins. The 1.5A rating is typical for USB 2.0 signal contacts; the 3A rating on the power contacts means this plug can deliver bus-level current for charging or powering a peripheral without a separate power jack.
Temperature Range and Environmental Fit
The 1500 mating cycles are above the USB-IF minimum of 1500 for standard USB connectors, so this plug holds up in high-cycle docking or portable equipment connections.
