The USB type A connector most often used in computers has a flat, rectangular shape . The use of flat connectors instead of round ones has a positive impact on the durability and ease of connecting and disconnecting USB devices from the connector. The USB Type A connector was designed primarily for connecting slave devices to a computer. This is important because a single USB port supplies 5VDC power.
Cables with USB Type A female connectors on both sides are used for bilateral data transmission between two computers. A standard USB Type-A cable is not designed for such a task, and its improper use may cause irreversible damage to associated computers or even cause a fire. When choosing a USB cable with a reversible female connector, check its data throughput against the hardware requirements of the devices you want to connect with it. USB sockets are a very wide range of products in our store. We offer various so-called USB terminals with USB ports (USB input).
The USB type B connector was designed for external devices connected to the base computer. Such a connector has a rectangular cross-section with two corners at an angle of 45° . Like the Type A connector, it has tightly formed pins ensuring durable and reliable contact. The USB type B connector is a connector for data transmission to master devices. For this reason, most external devices communicating with the computer via the USB port require the use of an AB cable. The USB type B connector is popular, among others, in printers. The USB port is a basic element of modern devices. Our offer also includes a USB B socket for installation and installation.
The USB Type-C connector is one of the latest solutions on the market for physically connecting computer devices. The USB C connector is characterized by a symmetrical structure that minimizes the risk of incorrect connection . The USB Type-C connector supports the USB 1.1, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, USB 3.1 standards and is unified using cables with older types of USB connectors, such as Type A, B, microB and others.
The use of a USB Type C connector with the USB 3.1 standard allows for data transfer between devices with a bandwidth of 10 Gbit/s, as well as providing power with a maximum voltage of up to 20 V, current up to 5 A and a power of 100 W. Moreover, the USB Type C connector allows support for the DisplayPort interface and quadraphonic audio system. The USB C socket is a very popular product in our store. The Type C socket is found in a large number of modern devices. They can be found in the body of a camera, a mobile phone (smartphone), as well as a tablet and a laptop.
The Micro USB type B connector, introduced by the USB Implementers Forum, is used in mobile phones, GPS navigation systems, PDA computers and digital cameras . The Micro USB type B connector is slightly smaller than the Mini USB connectors, but it also allows data transfer at a bandwidth of up to 480 Mb/s. Depending on the application, all component pins of the connector are used to transfer data between devices and provide power, and for chargers for phones and other portable devices, only the ground and power pins are used. The offer also includes a micro USB socket for soldering, a micro USB port and a micro USB plug for soldering. The USB standard should always be adapted to specific devices.
What are the most popular Mini USB variants? The Mini-B type USB connector is the most common version with four and five pins . Such a connector is slightly smaller than the USB Type A connector. A newer standard based on USB Mini-B is the USB OTG connector, which allows you to connect peripheral devices normally dedicated to PC computers, such as touchscreen phones and tablets. The less popular Mini-B USB connector, there is a 4-pin version - such a connector is found in some digital cameras and is used, among others, for: for data transfer.
All products listed are either a USB 2.0 connector or a USB 2.0 port. However, we also recommend the new type of USB 3.0 and USB 3.1 sockets.
The USB 3.0 type A connector is identical in its structure to the standard USB type A connector used, among others, in the USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 standards, and the outside is distinguished by the blue color of the connector and pin insulation . This connector was designed to transfer data with a bandwidth of up to 5 Gb/s, but it can also transfer data at slower speeds, ensuring compatibility with older USB connector standards.
The USB 3.0 type A connector is used in external hard drives, laptops, and extensive IT communication systems. Moreover, it is an element of telecommunications terminal equipment. When choosing a connector type, first of all, pay special attention to compatibility with the sockets of your devices. An adapter that allows you to change USB standards is also a good solution. In addition to plugs, sockets and modules, we also offer HDMI cables and adapters used to transmit high-quality image and sound.
If you need help or have questions about USB connectors, please contact us using available means of communication, i.e. e-mail, telephone or the contact form available on the website.
The main task of the USB connector is to connect devices equipped with this standard and transmit digital data via USB cables. They can also deliver electricity via cable to the devices that need it - they are universal and common.
Types of USB connectors include a USB Type A connector with a flat, rectangular shape, a USB Type B connector - rectangular with beveled corners, a symmetrical USB C connector, and mini and micro USB connectors often found in tablets and phones. You will find these and other connectors and cables in Botland.
USB connectors may remain universal, but their individual types differ not only in shape. The generations of USB connectors, i.e. USB 1.0, USB 1.1, USB 2.0 Hi-Speed, USB 3.0 SuperSpeed, USB 3.1 SuperSpeed+, USB 4.0, differ primarily in bandwidth, i.e. data transmission speed.
