Description
Overview
A four-pin USB 2.0 Type A breakout that turns a bare cable end into a screw-terminal block. The male build carries a USB A plug and the female build a USB A socket, both with a metal shield around the shell.
Specifications
- Standard: USB 2.0
- Connector: Type A
- Contacts: 4 pins
- Builds: male, female
- Termination: screw terminal block
- Shielding: metal shield on the USB shell
Purpose
Soldering a USB A plug onto a cable needs a fine tip and steady hands, and a moulded lead cannot be trimmed to length. This moves the joint to screw terminals, and both genders cover either cable end.
Applications
- Panel port on a custom enclosure
- Re-terminating a damaged USB cable
- Test jig with a screw-terminal USB tap
- Wiring a USB device into a fixed installation
How to Use
- Strip a short length of each conductor and tin it if the wire is stranded.
- Loosen the four screws and match each wire to the USB pins: supply, data pair, ground.
- Tighten every screw onto its conductor, then tug the wire to confirm.
- Carry the shield through where the installation calls for it.
- Treat this as a USB 2.0 data and low-power part; do not push a high-current charge through it.
