Product details

Mid-Mount USB-C with 10000-Cycle Durability

The Molex 2171840001 is a USB-C (USB Type-C) receptacle from the 217184 series, carrying 24 contacts and rated for 5A at 30VAC/DC. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) and is built for repeated plug/unplug duty — the 10000 mating cycles rating puts it well above a consumer-grade USB port, making it a solid pick for test equipment, industrial panels, or any port that sees daily connect cycles. The gold-plated contacts resist fretting corrosion over that lifespan. Mounting is flexible: board-edge cutout, surface-mount, or through-hole right-angle, with a horizontal mid-mount option that lets the connector sit flush on the board edge for tight enclosures. The shielded stainless steel shell handles EMI bleed and gives the port mechanical stiffness when a cable is plugged in at an angle.

Frequently asked questions

Is 2171840001 compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 2?

The specifications list USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps). The connector's physical interface is USB-C, but the rated data speed is Gen 1; it may not be certified for Gen 2 (10 Gbps) signal integrity. Verify with the full datasheet if your design requires Gen 2.

What is the pinout for Molex 2171840001?

The pinout follows the standard USB-C receptacle assignment — 24 contacts including the CC1/CC2, SBU1/SBU2, and four differential pairs for SuperSpeed. The exact pin numbering is defined in the USB Type-C specification; the Molex datasheet for the 217184 series includes the footprint and pad layout.

Does 2171840001 support USB Power Delivery?

Whether PD is supported depends on the controller and cable — the receptacle itself can handle the power levels, but PD negotiation requires a downstream controller.
