Board-Mount Micro USB B with a 10,000-Cycle Rating
The Molex 474910001 is a micro USB B receptacle from the 47491 series, designed for surface-mount assembly on a board cutout with a right-angle, mid-mount orientation. It carries 5 contacts in a single port, shielded with a steel/stainless shell, and terminated by solder. The gold-plated contacts are rated for 10,000 mating cycles — well above the 5,000 to 7,000 cycles typical of standard micro USB connectors — so this part is built for applications where the cable is frequently connected and disconnected over the product's life.
Mounting and Footprint — Mid-Mount SMT
This is a right-angle, mid-mount SMT receptacle that requires a board cutout for the body to sit flush. The mid-mount profile positions the mating interface lower on the board edge compared to a standard right-angle USB, which helps with thin enclosure designs. The mounting type is explicitly Board Cutout, Surface Mount, Right Angle — confirm your PCB has the cutout before committing the footprint.
Electrical Ratings and Contact Finish
Rated 30VAC and 1A, 1.8A — the dual current figure likely reflects the VBUS pin carrying the higher value and the signal/data pins the lower. The gold contact finish supports the 10,000-cycle mating life and resists corrosion in portable or field-use environments. Operating temperature range is -35°C to 85°C, with a UL94 V-0 flammability-rated housing.
ROHS3 compliant.
