Waterproof USB Connectors
USB Type-C, the newest USB connector standard, is about cabling. You'll begin to see the small, reversible Type-C connectors on devices from laptops and smart phones to flash drives and video systems. The list is inclusive and growing because the Type-C cable can provide both data and power to hosts and devices, as well as offer a universal power cable solution. Smaller than the standard USB connectors, the rugged connector can be used in slimmer designs and be configured for a variety of applications. Its promise: that tangle of power adapters and proprietary cables you have clumped around your AC outlet fades away and your data transfers quickly. Unique video cables are a thing of the past.
Type-C is also the realization of a vision to bring various parts of the USB specifications together to form a complete system of cabling, power, and signal management for all applications. USB 2.0 Type-C cables support USB 2.0 Low-speed, Full-Speed and High-speed formats. USB Type-C full-featured cables also support the SuperSpeed+ and SuperSpeed 10G data rates of USB 3.1 Gen1 and Gen2. The Type-C interconnect uses USB Power Delivery (PD) to enable the 100W power capability that allows faster battery charging and the ability to power larger devices such as laptops, monitors and TVs. Type-C full-featured cables are active, electronically marked cablesi incorporating signal conditioning, power management, and configurable connections. Wires within these cables can be reconfigured via PD vendor defined messages (VDMs) to handle video and audio signals using alternate and accessory modes. With its smaller size, range of power levels, faster data rates and the ability to handle multiple data protocols, Type-C positions itself as the USB connector of the future.
