In order to offer a high degree of protection in the industrial environment, Phoenix Contact has integrated the Mini-B USB insert into the M12 plug connector. The M12-Mini-B plug connectors measure 15 x 24,92 mm, including the PCB pins. Thanks to their compact size, they are suitable for applications where space-saving solutions are required. These include data acquisition/logging in onboard systems, visual systems, industrial monitoring cameras as well as for test and measurement instruments.
The moulded cables ensure IP65/IP67 protection rating while the M12 housing offers protection against heavy knocks and blows and can even withstand corrosive environments. The M12-Mini-B USB plug connector has an integrated grounding spring contact which connects the connector to the metal housing. This ensures a continuous ground path, therefore achieving optimum shielding.
The PCB plug connectors can be mounted directly onto PC boards. This eliminates the need for additional components for the PC board connection, such as soldering lug connections. Equipped with the Speedcon quick connection system, they can be locked with just half a turn. With a data transmission rate of 480 Mbps, the plug connectors comply with the USB 2.0 standard.
