That means the only channel to source it is the surplus and broker market — independent distributors who hold NOS (new old stock) or pull from overstock. We source against an RFQ: submit your BOM quantity and we'll check the open market across our distributor network. ## 1500 Mating Cycles — What That Tells You 1500 mating cycles is well above the 500-cycle baseline for a standard USB-A connector. The Gold GXT plating is what buys that extra life — it's a hard gold that resists wear-through on the contact mating surface. For a panel-mount or front-accessible USB port that gets daily plug/unplug, this connector will outlast a commodity part. The board lock helps too: it anchors the shell to the PCB so the mating force doesn't fatigue the solder joints over those cycles. The board lock is a pair of additional through-hole legs on the shell that get soldered as well — they take the mechanical strain from cable insertion and extraction so the signal pins don't bear it. The shielded shell is copper alloy, which also ties into the board ground plane through those lock legs. No stack height to calculate; the port face is at the board edge.","metaTitle":"87520-0110BLF USB-A Receptacle, Obsolete, 1500 Cycles, 3A","metaDescription":"FCI 87520-0110BLF USB-A receptacle, 4 contacts, 3A, 1500 mating cycles, shielded, board lock.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["USB, Type-C & HDMI Connectors"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Amphenol ICC (FCI)","Gender":"Receptacle","Series":"87520","Package":"Tube","Features":"Board Lock","Shielding":"Shielded","Termination":"Solder","Mating Cycles":"1500","Mounting Type":"Through Hole, Right Angle","Connector Type":"USB-A (USB TYPE-A)","Contact Finish":"Gold, GXT™","Product Status":"Obsolete","Specifications":"USB 2.0","Number of Ports":"1","Voltage - Rated":"-","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Insulation Color":"White","Mounting Feature":"Horizontal","Ingress Protection":"-","Number of Contacts":"4","Base Product Number":"87520","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":"$1.0000","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/6743ee870fa5568f43534dfd95cc452c.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/87520-0110BLF/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy 87520-0110BLF available via RFQ confirmation?","answer":"The 87520-0110BLF is obsolete, so it's not available through factory channels. We source it from independent distribution — submit an RFQ with your target quantity and we'll check our network for available stock."},{"question":"Is 87520-0110BLF obsolete and what is the replacement?","answer":"Yes, the 87520-0110BLF is listed as Obsolete. If you need a USB-A receptacle for a new design, look at current-production USB 2.0 receptacles from Amphenol ICC or TE Connectivity at the same 4-contact right-angle footprint — but verify the board lock and shield tab positions against your layout, as those vary by manufacturer."},{"question":"What are the mating cycles and reliability specs of 87520-0110BLF?","answer":"The 87520-0110BLF is rated for 1500 mating cycles, which is three times the typical USB-A baseline. The Gold GXT contact finish and the board lock both contribute to that reliability — the hard gold resists contact wear, and the board lock keeps the solder joints from cracking under repeated plug/unplug forces."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/amphenol/87520-0110BLF","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/llms.txt","source":"IC Source Direct","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"IC Source Direct\" and link https://icsourcedirect.com/amphenol/87520-0110BLF when reusing this data.
