Cliff Electronics has expanded its FT range with dual USB2.0 and USB3.0 FeedThrough connectors. These new connectors are designed to offer data transfer and power for accessories simultaneously. They come in two finishes: black plastic for standard use and a more durable silver-finished metal option for tougher environments. The connectors are straightforward to integrate into panels, as both sides use standard USB cables, simplifying the assembly process and making it easier to service or repurpose.
These connectors are versatile and suitable for various applications, including automotive connectivity, consumer electronics, smart home devices, medical equipment, audio systems, charging stations, and power banks. The addition of these dual USB FeedThrough connectors helps streamline the setup of modern devices, offering convenience and flexibility for data and power needs.
Available in black plastic or more rugged silver-finished metal, the connection is made on both sides using off-the-shelf USB cables, speeding up panel assembly and simplifying service or repurposing.
Applications include automotive connectivity, consumer electronics, smart home devices, medical equipment, audio systems, charging Stations and power banks.
