Product details

USB-A Receptacle for Panel or Board-Edge Mounting

It is a shielded, single-port connector with a vertical orientation relative to the board edge, making it suitable for panel-mount or board-edge applications where the cable plugs in from the side. The gold-plated contacts and USB 2.0 specification support reliable signal integrity for data and power delivery up to 1A at 30VDC.

Board Layout and Solder Termination

This connector uses through-hole solder termination, which provides a robust mechanical anchor to the PCB.

Durability and Contact Performance

Rated for 1500 mating cycles, the 673298040 is built for frequent plug/unplug duty typical of field-service terminals, test equipment, or user-facing ports. The shielded shell (copper alloy) provides EMI containment to meet radiated emissions limits.
