March 20, 2020 - L-com, an Infinite Electronics brand and a manufacturer of wired and wireless connectivity products, announced that it has launched a series of latching USB 3.0 cables that feature latching Type-A male connectors that ensure a secure connection even when exposed to heavy vibration.
Standard USB 3.0 connectors employ a friction fit design and can disconnect from the mating jack when subject to vibration or pulling. To address this limitation, L-com now stocks four new families of latching USB 3.0 cable assemblies that are designed to mate with any standard USB 3.0 Type-A jack.
Low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) and Jacket PVC jacket options are available as well as latching Type-A and standard Type-B connecter combinations.
Common features for this series include compliance with USB Revision 1.0, 1.1, 2.0 and 3.0, and 30 micro-inch, gold-plated contacts which provide reliable connections even with repeated mating cycles.
These cables are offered in off-the-shelf lengths of 0.3, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0 and 1.5 meters.
