L-com Debuts New USB 3.0 Type-C Cable Assemblies

NORTH ANDOVER, Mass. (April 18, 2017) – L-com Global Connectivity, a preferred manufacturer of wired and wireless connectivity products, announced today that it has launched two new series of USB 3.0 Type-C to Type-A cable assemblies that are ideal for data storage, video transfer and data acquisition applications.

L-com’s new USB 3.0 Type-C to Type-A cable assemblies are available in two configurations: Type-C female to Type-A male and Type-C male to Type-A female. With data transfer rates of 4.8 Gbps, these cable assemblies meet USB 3.0 standards. They feature 360-degrees of shielding with an overall aluminum/polyester shield and a tinned copper braid shield.

These cable assemblies have fully shielded, twisted pair data lines that provide protection against EMI/RFI, reduce crosstalk and allow for maximum cable flexibility. Type-C connectors allow for simple plug-and-play connections with hand held devices and other USB 3.0 Type-C devices. Both cable series are available in .3, .5, 1, 2 and 3 meter, and 3 foot lengths.

“L-com’s USB 3.0 Type-C to Type-A cable assemblies feature double-shielding and robust cable jacketing to meet the highest manufacturing standards and exceed customer expectations of quality, durability and performance,” said Brian Gates, Product Manager.

L-com’s USB 3.0 Type-C cable assemblies include 30u gold-plated connectors for repeated mating cycles, and fully molded connectors for excellent strain relief. They are ideal for mobile devices, computer peripheral devices, gaming, diagnostic tools and medical, military and aerospace applications.
