Data Buccaneer mini USB AB connectors seal to IP68
The latest addition to Bulgin's Data Buccaneer range of dust and waterproof connectors is a new Mini USB AB style interface in three panel-mounted configurations. These three AB versions offer a choice of panel mounting; the PX0456 is front-of-panel mounting with a flying lead to the rear, terminated with a six-way 0.1inch crimp connector, while the other two are rear-of-panel mounted. The PX0457 has a flying lead terminated with six-way PCB header and the PX0458 has straight pins for direct soldering to a PCB. Both enable the connector to be soldered to a PCB and tested as part of the assembly before final build.
Being compatible with both mini A and mini B style interfaces, this new five-pole connector enables designers to make full use of the USB plug-and-play interface.
As with others in the Buccaneer range, the mini USB connector is dust and waterproof to IP68, when mated, and provides USB V2.0 performance up to 480Mbs.
The matching pre-wired cable connectors, PX0441 and PX0442, are available in 2, 3 and 4.5m lengths with a sealed Mini B type USB connector paired with either a standard or miniature A type USB connector. The diameter over the coupling ring is just 19mm and the screw coupling provides a secure, proven locking system.
Mini USB Buccaneer connectors find many applications within smaller peripherals or where panel space is at a premium and, as with all Bulgin products, is fully RoHS compliant.
