USB-B Receptacle with Board Lock for Secure Panel-Mount
The Molex 0670688000 is a USB-B (USB TYPE-B) receptacle from the 67068 series, with 4 contacts arranged for USB 2.0 signaling.
Board Lock and Right-Angle Orientation
The horizontal mounting feature confirms the connector body sits flush with the board edge.
Shielding and USB 2.0 Compliance
The shielded construction uses a copper alloy shell to contain EMI from the USB 2.0 differential pair, keeping radiated emissions within FCC/CE limits for consumer and industrial equipment. The USB 2.0 specification supports data rates up to 480 Mbps — this connector is not rated for USB 3.0 SuperSpeed signaling, which requires additional contacts and a different impedance profile.
This makes the 0670688000 suitable for field-serviceable ports or test fixtures where frequent connect/disconnect is expected.
Flammability and Operating Range
Operating temperature is rated 0°C to 50°C, a standard commercial range for consumer electronics, peripherals, and office equipment — not extended for automotive or outdoor enclosure use.
