Molex’s wide range of USB products includes USB Type-A, USB Type-B, USB Type-C, USB 4, USB 3.0, standard USB 2.0, Micro USB and Mini-B, with various configurations, orientation, soldering and mounting options that support splashproof and waterproof devices, reversible function, power delivery, high-data transmission rate and reliable connectivity.
Some USB connectors don’t comply with the required USB specifications, which can cause costly electrical damage. Most of our USB products are TID certified and comply with various dimensions to help prevent costly electrical damage. Molex’s USB Type-C I/O connectors use high-temperature plastic as housing material and a 3-tier insert-molding process to help ensure high mating durability. The mating tongue design protects the interconnects from possible damage caused by mishandling, shipment or assembly processes. With 3.0A/5.0A current to enable faster and safer charging, Molex offers a wide range of USB Type-C Connectors that are physically robust and electrically reliable.
Many consumer and industrial applications experience wet conditions that could cause failure in connectors. USB 2.0 and Micro-B offer an IP67-rated waterproof option that withstands post-solder reflow while minimizing water ingression. With an IP*8 rating/waterproof option and up to 40 Gbps (USB4 Gen 4 speed), Molex offers a wide range of USB type connectors.
Industries are challenged to meet more complex design requirements and therefore need design flexibility for their applications.
