Engineers champing at the bit to lay hands on the product will find Type A, Type B and Micro-B connectors which provide full metal shielding for EMI, ESD and RFI protection. The USB 3.0 SuperSpeed connectors are fully compliant with the USB 2.0 and 3.0 specification and offer a significant leap forward in transfer speeds (5 Gbps signalling rate) and a 10x performance increase over Hi-Speed USB capabilities, while maintaining backwards compatibility with USB 2.0 devices.The improvements to the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed connectors provide a solution for increasingly sophisticated peripherals that require more power and improved interaction between devices and the host computer by providing more power when needed and less power when not needed.
Keith Privett, Mouser’s Vice President, Interconnect, regards the availability of the USB 3.0 connectors from Amphenol USB 3.0 as an exciting opportunity. “With 5-10 times the bandwidth, USB 3.0 provides customers with a high speed connector solution for next generation devices. The USB has now caught up with the peripherals that it was supporting. This advance in technology is one of the most important technological advances for interconnects in recent memory.”
