The TE Connectivity 440247-3 is a USB mini B receptacle — the 5-contact, single-port version that sits on the board edge of a portable device, peripheral, or embedded system. It is a right-angle surface-mount part, so the cable plugs in parallel to the PCB, which keeps the overall assembly height low for enclosures with tight z-clearance. The gold-plated contacts and USB 2.0 rating mean it handles the 480 Mbps data rate and the usual 5 V power delivery for a mini-B connection. Board guide and solder retention features help keep the part aligned during reflow and resist the shear force from cable insertion and removal.
Lifecycle Status — What It Means for Your BOM
The 440247-3 is marked Obsolete by TE Connectivity. That means it is no longer in production and has no scheduled last-time-buy window.
Mounting and Termination Details
This is a surface-mount, right-angle receptacle. The board guide aligns the part on the PCB during pick-and-place, and the solder retention features hold it in position through the reflow oven. Supplied in Tape & Reel packaging for automated assembly.
