Product details

USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A Receptacle, Right-Angle, Shielded

The Molex 484050004 is a USB-A (USB Type-A) receptacle from the 48405 series, carrying 9 contacts and rated for USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1 / Superspeed USB 3.0). This is the board-side receptacle that mates with a standard USB-A cable plug.

Current Ratings and Contact Assignment

The 484050004 carries a dual current rating: 0.25 A per contact on the signal pins and 1.8 A per contact on the power/VBUS pins. This is standard for USB 3.x receptacles — the four SuperSpeed differential pairs (eight signal contacts) are rated for signal-level current, while the single VBUS pin handles the higher power delivery. The 1.8 A rating on the power contact is sufficient for USB 3.0 bus-powered devices drawing up to 900 mA, with headroom for inrush. The 0.25 A signal rating is not a limitation for digital data lines; it reflects the contact's capacity in a continuous DC scenario, not the transient signal current.

Through-hole solder termination with a right-angle body and horizontal mounting feature. The board lock consists of two through-hole retention pins that solder into the PCB alongside the signal and power pins, distributing extraction force across the board. The blue insulation color is a visual identifier for the USB 3.0/3.1/3.2 Gen 1 standard (USB 2.0 receptacles are typically black or white).

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy the Molex 484050004 USB-A receptacle?

No stock-holding or immediacy claim is made here.

Is 484050004 compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1?

Yes. The specifications list USB 3.2 Gen 1, which is the same signaling rate as USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.0 (5 Gbps). The 484050004 is electrically and mechanically compatible with any standard USB-A cable or device operating at those speeds.

Does the 484050004 have a board lock feature?

Yes. The connector includes a board lock — two through-hole retention pins that solder into the PCB to anchor the connector against the mechanical stress of cable insertion and removal.

What is the mating cycle life of 484050004?

Rated for 5000 mating cycles. This is significantly higher than the 1500-cycle typical for standard USB receptacles, making it suitable for equipment that sees frequent reconnection such as test fixtures, programming jigs, or field-serviceable ports.
