Amphenol has released its first full range of USB 2.0 connections for harsh environments. The USB A connectors have now been joined by USB B cables and connectors (to link up peripherals).
The range is said to be the only one that features reinforced cables and metal-bodied connectors. It is also one of the few providing solutions for USB A and USB B connections.
The sheaths of the USB leads are reinforced with double shielding. They comply with fire and smoke regulations, ie, they are self-extinguishing and halogen-free (UL94-V0).
All these solutions ensure resistance to industrial and military environments — IP67 waterproofing and resistance to salt spray for 48 to 500 h depending on the type of protection. They can be used in a wide temperature range, from -40 to +85°C.
The locking system uses a screw thread and it incorporates an anti-uncoupling system that provides good levels of resistance to vibrations and impacts.
The range also includes versions dedicated to applications subjected to major levels of disturbances due to electromagnetic fields, together with hardened, lockable USB sticks with up to 32 GB of memory and featuring the same technical characteristics.
The range fully complies with the USB 2 standard, providing flows of up to 480 Mbps for full speed USB.
