It mounts through-hole with a right-angle orientation, so the cable plugs in parallel to the board — a common layout for rear-panel or edge-mounted USB ports on industrial controllers, test equipment, and embedded systems. The contacts carry a gold finish, which gives better corrosion resistance and a higher mating-cycle life than tin, useful in environments where the port sees repeated plug-unplug cycles.
Board Fit and Mounting
The black insulation colour is typical for USB-A receptacles and doesn't affect fit.
Sourcing Reality — Obsolete Status
This means the factory has stopped production and there is no scheduled last-time-buy window.
What Crosses Into the Existing Harness
Because this is a standard USB-A receptacle, any USB-A plug will mate with it — the interface is defined by the USB specification, not by TE's part number. The 4-contact pinout follows the USB 2.0 standard: VBUS, D-, D+, and GND. If you're replacing a failed 1932854-1 on an existing board, the footprint is the standard USB-A right-angle through-hole layout, so any USB-A receptacle with the same 4-pin through-hole pattern and right-angle orientation is a candidate. The gold contacts on this part mean it was specified for a duty where tin would wear out faster — keep that in mind when selecting a cross.
