USB-B Receptacle for USB 2.0 — Right-Angle SMT on the Board Edge
The TE Connectivity 1734346-1 is a USB-B (USB TYPE-B) receptacle, the standard downstream port connector for USB 2.0 host devices. It carries 4 contacts rated 1A at 30VAC, matching the USB 2.0 specification for power and data lines. The gold contact finish supports the 1500 mating cycle rating — higher than a typical USB connector — making this a good fit for applications where the port sees frequent connect/disconnect cycles, such as test equipment, programming jigs, or field-service panels.
What the 1500 Mating Cycles Mean for Your Application
The 1500 mating cycle rating on this USB-B receptacle is roughly three times the durability of a standard USB 2.0 connector (typically rated 500 cycles).
