It carries 4 contacts and is rated for 1.5A per contact at 250VAC — standard USB 2.0 power and data duty for a single downstream port. This is the part you spec when the PCB edge needs a horizontal, mid-mount, reverse USB-A port with the board lock holding it through wave solder.
Board Lock and Solder Retention — Why They Matter Here
A USB-A cable inserted and removed hundreds of times applies shear force to the solder joints; the board lock takes that load off the signal pins. The right-angle, through-hole termination gives a stronger mechanical bond than a surface-mount-only part, which matters when the port lives on a board edge subject to handling during assembly or field service.
