Environmentally sealed USB connectors

17 September 2014 Interconnection

The recently released Quick Lock USB 3.0 system from Omnetics supports SuperSpeed USB 3.0 in a rugged IP67 housing. Unlike anything else previously engineered by the company, flex pins and sockets are not present in this Type A connector range which comes in in-line and panel-mount configurations.

The components feature a halogen-free cable jacket and support high IR reflow temperatures up to 255°C while maintaining solder mount compatibility. The male plugs come prewired in a tough, environmentally sealed overmould, while the female board- and panel-mount models are available in dual-row surface mount or through-hole version terminations for convenient, direct to board assemblies, or wired for convenient routing to other areas of the systems.

This product line meets the electrical parameters outlined in the newest USB 3.0 standard, and does so in a familiar package that provides the ability to mate and de-mate in a rapid fashion without any tools, even when the operator is wearing heavy gloves.
