Hirose ZX62D-B-5PA8(30) – USB 2.0 Micro B Receptacle for High-Duty-Cycle Applications
It carries 5 contacts and is rated for 1.8A at 30VAC, with a shielded steel shell and gold-plated contacts. The standout feature here is the 10000 mating cycle rating — double the endurance of a typical consumer-grade micro USB connector, making this part a fit for equipment that sees frequent plug/unplug in the field, like handheld test gear, medical peripherals, or industrial HMI panels. The mounting is surface-mount, right-angle, with a bottom-mount, horizontal orientation. The pick and place cap and solder retention features confirm it's built for automated SMT assembly lines — the cap protects the contact area during vacuum pick-up and the retention tabs hold the part in place through reflow.
Standard micro USB connectors typically rate between 5000 and 10000 cycles. The ZX62D-B-5PA8(30) sits at the top of that range, which translates to a service life of roughly 27 years at one mate/unmate per day. For a device that gets plugged in several times a shift — a barcode scanner, a configuration port on a PLC, or a data-logging handset — that margin matters. The shielded steel shell also adds mechanical robustness for repeated insertion.
