Waterproof USB connectors
10 March 2004
Interconnection
Bulgin has added to its range of IP68 waterproof connectors a unique new design for USB connections. Based around the standard USB interface, these 4 pole hot-pluggable connectors have USB Ver 2 performance offering high speed data transfer up to 480 Mbps. Shielded USB connectors, combined with continuous screening, produce a high degree of noise immunity and EMI protection - an important consideration in electrically noisy industrial environments.
Three formats of single and double-ended cables offer a number of options for environmentally-sealed connections between PC and peripherals, these are: IP68 sealed A type USB to standard B type USB, IP68 sealed B type USB to standard A type USB and IP68 sealed A type USB to IP68 sealed B type USB. Each is available in 2, 3 and 5 m lengths.
Based on Bulgin's standard Buccaneer design it now features over moulding technology (using UL94V-0 rated PVC) where the connector body is moulded directly over the cable. This gives both a tough outer body and reliable cable seal. The screw coupling provides a secure and proven locking system allowing quick and easy connections. Sealing caps are also available to maintain the IP rating of unmated connectors.
