USB-A Receptacle for SMT Assembly
It is a surface-mount, right-angle connector designed for horizontal board mounting, which places the USB port parallel to the PCB — a common orientation for edge-mounted I/O panels where the connector body extends through a chassis cutout.
As a right-angle SMT part, the 87583-3010RPALF requires a footprint that accounts for the horizontal plug insertion axis. The board locks add extra solder pads for mechanical retention — the recommended land pattern in the product drawing keeps the connector body flush against the board edge.
Comparison with 87583-2010RPALF
Both are 4-contact USB-A receptacles in the 87583 series. The 87583-3010RPALF is a right-angle SMT part for horizontal board mounting; the 87583-2010RPALF is a vertical through-hole version.
The material flammability rating is UL94 V-0.
