It combines a standard USB 2.0 data pair with dedicated power contacts in one shielded shell, rated 12V at 3A per contact. ## What the 12V / 3A Rating Means for the Design The 12V rated voltage and 3A per-contact current are standard for USB power delivery, but the combo connector adds extra power contacts beyond the four pins of a standard USB-A. This means the connector can carry higher total current for charging or auxiliary power while the USB 2.0 data pair handles signaling. The 3A per-contact rating is at the connector level — derate above 85°C per the product drawing. ## Shielded Shell and USB 2.0 Compliance The copper alloy shield contains EMI for the USB 2.0 data pair. The connector meets USB 2.0 specifications for full-speed and high-speed signaling. Through-hole, right-angle termination with a horizontal mounting feature. The copper alloy shield pins are soldered into plated through-holes for ground connection.","metaTitle":"Amphenol 55917-501LF USB-A + Power Combo Receptacle","metaDescription":"Amphenol 55917-501LF USB-A and power combo receptacle, 8 contacts, 12V rated, 3A per contact, shielded, board lock, right-angle through-hole, RoHS compliant.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"55917","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"RoHS Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["USB, Type-C & HDMI Connectors","USB / HDMI Cable Assemblies"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Amphenol ICC (FCI)","Gender":"Receptacle","Series":"55917","Package":"Bulk","Features":"Board Lock","Shielding":"Shielded","Termination":"Solder","Mating Cycles":"1500","Mounting Type":"Through Hole, Right Angle","Connector Type":"USB-A (USB TYPE-A) and Power, Combo","Contact Finish":"Gold, GXT™","Product Status":"Active","Specifications":"USB 2.0","Number of Ports":"1","Voltage - Rated":"12V","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Insulation Color":"Teal","Mounting Feature":"Horizontal","Ingress Protection":"-","Number of Contacts":"8","Base Product Number":"55917","Current Rating (Amps)":"3A","Operating Temperature":"-55°C~85°C","Shell/Shielding Material":"Copper Alloy","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$2.2100","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$2.21000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$1.92600","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$1.84360","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$1.80280","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$1.72080","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$1.55688","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$1.43398","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$1.22912","currency":"USD"},{"qty":2500,"price":"$1.14718","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/fdb861e900790c8d0acbb7bfdb324ed3.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/55917-501LF/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy 55917-501LF?","answer":"Submit an RFQ for your BOM quantity."},{"question":"Is 55917-501LF RoHS compliant?","answer":"Yes, the 55917-501LF is listed as RoHS compliant."},{"question":"Does 55917-501LF have a shield?","answer":"Yes, the connector has a shielded shell made of copper alloy for EMI containment."},{"question":"Is there a direct replacement for 55917-501LF?","answer":"The 55917-500LF (black, tray), 55917-601LF (red, bulk), and 55917-600LF (black, tube) are electrically identical — same 8 contacts, 12V/3A, USB 2.0, shielded, board lock, and 1500 mating cycles.
