The Molex USB Type-C connectors feature a reversible mating interface designed to accept a plug in any direction, enabling easy, reliable mating. The connectors support a variety of protocols and, with the use of adapters, are backwards-compatible to HDMI, VGA, DisplayPort and other types of connections from the single USB Type-C port.

Molex's USB Type-C connectors feature a high-temperature nylon insert within the receptacle housing and a Mylar insert within the plug housing to increase connector strength and reduce potential shorting, even in high-frequency mating. The connectors are suitable for a variety of applications, including computing, telecommunications, power chargers, medical devices, automotive infotainment systems, smartphones and tablets, and wearable devices.
