USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A receptacle with board lock
The GSB311A41EU is a 9-contact USB-A receptacle from Amphenol ICC's GSB3 series, supporting USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Superspeed) data rates. Rated 30VAC with a dual current rating of 0.25A and 1.8A — the higher figure covers the power contacts, the lower the signal contacts. Gold plating on the mating interface resists corrosion over repeated connect cycles.
Signal and power delivery for USB 3.2 Gen 1
The 9-contact layout matches the USB 3.2 Gen 1 pinout — four SuperSpeed differential pairs plus the VBUS, GND, D+, and D- legacy pair. The steel and stainless shell provides EMI containment; the blue insulation colour identifies the connector as a SuperSpeed USB 3.x port at a glance.
