Frequently Asked Questions
What is the pinout and wire gauge configuration of this USB-C to Right-Angle Micro USB cable?
This cable assembly utilizes UL2725 wire with 24AWG conductors (Red for VBUS on P1 A4/A9/B4/B9 to P2 Pin 1; Black for GND on P1 A1/A12/B1/B12/Shell to P2 Pin 5) for stable power delivery, paired with a 28AWG twisted pair (White D- on P1 A7/B7 to P2 Pin 2; Green D+ on P1 A6/B6 to P2 Pin 3) and full ADB shielding for USB 2.0 signal integrity.
How does the 90-degree Micro USB overmolding improve mechanical installation in compact enclosures?
The right-angle Micro USB 5-pin connector features a precision 6.5±0.2mm mating plug profile and a dual-stage molding structure (5g PP inner mold plus 12g 35P black PVC outer overmold with strain relief), reducing side-routing clearance requirements and preventing conductor fatigue under tight bend radii.
What electrical inspection standards are applied before shipment?
Every cable assembly undergoes 100% automated electrical verification for open circuits, short circuits, and miswiring, ensuring a maximum conductor resistance of 5 Ohms, a minimum insulation resistance of 10M Ohms, and dielectric withstanding capability at DC 300V for 0.01 seconds.
Overview and Application Notes
This custom overmolded USB 2.0 cable assembly connects a straight 16-pin USB Type-C Male plug (P1) to a 90-degree right-angle 5-pin Micro USB B-Type Male connector (P2). Engineered with UL2725 standard multi-conductor shielded wire (OD 4.5mm) and a total length of 1500±50mm, it provides reliable power delivery and USB 2.0 data transmission for space-constrained industrial enclosures, handheld terminals, and embedded OEM devices.
Key Features
- Connector Configuration: Straight USB Type-C 16-Pin Male plug to Right-Angle (90-Degree) Micro USB 5-Pin Male plug.
- UL2725 Certified Cable Construction: Built with 28AWG*1PR (data twisted pair) + 24AWG*2C (power conductors) + ADB (Aluminum Mylar Foil + Drain Wire + Braided Shield) inside a durable OD 4.5mm black PVC jacket.
- Rugged Overmolding & Strain Relief: Inner PP insulation mold (5g) combined with 35P black PVC outer overmolding (12g) and integrated strain relief to prevent cable bend fatigue.
- Strict Electrical Verification: 100% tested for open, short, and miswire conditions, featuring 5 Ohms max conductor resistance, 10M Ohms min insulation resistance, and DC 300V/0.01s dielectric withstanding voltage.
- Environmental Compliance: Fully RoHS compliant materials suitable for global industrial and commercial OEM integration.
Engineering Specifications & Assembly Guidance
The right-angle Micro USB B-type connector features an exposed mating plug length of 6.5±0.2mm, minimizing side clearance requirements inside tight chassis designs, while the straight USB Type-C plug maintains a standard 6.8±0.2mm mating interface length. Internal wiring routes Red (VBUS) from P1 (A4+A9+B4+B9) to P2 Pin 1, White (D-) from P1 (A7+B7) to P2 Pin 2, Green (D+) from P1 (A6+B6) to P2 Pin 3, Black (GND) from P1 (A1+A12+B1+B12+Shell) to P2 Pin 5, and full outer shielding to connector shells. Pins A5 and B5 on the Type-C interface incorporate integrated resistor configurations (R1/R2) for proper legacy device identification.
