Therefore, this product can be used with confidence in equipment that require robustness and operate in vibrating environments. By equipping a screw lock on the plug hood, the connector can be securely fixed to the device housing. These products are compatible with the USB 3.1 and Type-C standard, and can support high-speed transmission up to 10Gbps and 5A max power supply depending on the cable configuration. To cater to these new requirements, JAE has developed and launched the USB Type-C cable harness featuring screw locks, that conforms to the screw lock specification added to the USB 3.1 standard. The USB Type-C connectors are widely used as a data and power interface for PCs, smartphones, audio visual devices, gaming devices, and are expected to expand to industrial equipment applications as well.ĭemands to satisfy industrial requirements for robustness and reliability meant there was a need to create a supplemental specification for a USB Type-C connector with a locking engagement method. It will be made available to customers as part of the 'DX07 Series' family of products which also includes standard cable harnesses without screw locks, as well as receptacle and plug connectors.

JAE has developed and released a USB Type-C cable harnesses which has a thumb screw integrated in the plug hoods to allow for secure mating in industrial applications.
