Molex Micro-USB Receptacles and Cable Assemblies are designed to support USB On-the-Go (OTG) functionality, enabling direct communication between portable devices without a host computer. These devices are available in type B and type AB configurations with top-, bottom-, and mid-mount options, as well as USB A-to-Micro-USB B cable assemblies. The Micro-USB devices feature a laser-welded metal shield for added mechanical strength and a lead-in housing design for reliable blind-mating. These receptacles and cables provide a passive latch system and withstand more than 10,000 mating cycles for durable performance. Typical applications include mobile phones, digital cameras, portable media players, and other compact electronic devices requiring high-density data and power connections.
