9 August 2006
Interconnection
Samtec has added a high retention Type B USB interface (USBR Series) to its range of connectors that complies with the Class 1, Div II minimum withdrawal requirement of 15 Newtons. This connector has an orange colour-coded insulator to differentiate it from standard withdrawal force connectors (USB Series) that are available with white or black plastic.
These USB connectors are available in surface mount and through-hole designs with a choice of standard right-angle or vertical top-entry orientation. In addition to B Type connectors, Samtec also carries a full line of A Type and mini USB interfaces and standard (USBC Series) and custom cable assemblies.
Samtec's full line of I/O interfaces includes D-Subs, Mod Jacks, Firewire and USB, and Mini-DINs. In addition, Samtec offers a large variety of panel-to-panel systems for high speed and rugged I/O applications, including single-ended and differential pair signal routing, mounting and locking options for rugged applications, and socket, terminal, and ZIF flex terminations.
