Molex USB Type-C Connectors & Cable Assemblies

Molex compact USB Type-C connectors offer greater PCB savings while enabling high-frequency mating in data, consumer and other I/O applications.

Featuring support for 5.0A of power in plug and receptacles which reduces battery-charging time by 64% versus micro-USB 2.0’s current rating of 1.8A.

With reversible plugging capabilities, the new Molex USB Type-C connectors offer the smallest pitch (0.5mm), BIG current-carrying capacity (5.0A) and maximum data throughput of 10Gbps.

  • Support for 5.0A of power in plug and receptacles reduces battery-charging time by 64% versus micro-USB 2.0's current rating of 1.8A
  • Mid-plate connector 'tongue' design in receptacle ensures high reliability while preventing damage from connector abuse
  • High-temperature Nylon insert-mold receptacle housing increases connector strength to reduce potential shorting between mid-plate and terminals
  • Single-piece metal shell on cable plug provides easy identification and differentiation against non Type-C USB cables
  • Mylar between plug housing and shell prevents potential electrical shorting during mating
  • High normal force terminal design on plug stabilizes electrical performance while supporting higher current-carrying capacity with reduced temperature-rise
  • Availability of cable options meeting USB 2.0 and 3.1 speeds suits a variety of users depending on application requirements
