MOLEX / BRAD 4 Way Vertical USB 2.0 Type A PCB Socket

The MOLEX / BRAD 4 Way Vertical USB 2.0 Type A PCB Socket provides a compact and efficient solution for integrating USB connectivity directly onto printed circuit boards (PCBs). This vertical-mount connector is specifically engineered for board-level applications where space is at a premium, allowing for a neat and organised internal layout within electronic devices.

Featuring four individual USB 2.0 Type A ports, this socket facilitates multiple simultaneous data and power connections. Its vertical orientation ensures the connection ports are accessible from the top of the PCB, which is ideal for designs where the board is mounted parallel to the device's chassis or enclosure.

Key Applications & Benefits

This connector is perfect for internal expansions in computers, custom electronics projects, and specialised industrial equipment. It enables the creation of internal USB hubs, allowing for the connection of multiple peripherals—such as internal storage drives, security dongles, or diagnostic tools—without requiring external ports or bulky cabling.

The robust PCB mount design ensures a stable mechanical and electrical connection, suitable for wave soldering processes. Manufactured to high-quality standards, it ensures reliable data transfer and power delivery for connected devices.
