TE Connectivity’s (TE) USB Type-C connectors are designed to an industry standard that provides a sleek, slim design small enough for handheld devices and robust enough for industrial applications. The USB Type-C connector features a reversible mating interface; the receptacle is designed to accept a plug in any direction, enabling easy, reliable mating. This connector supports a variety of different protocols, and with the use of adaptors, it is backwards compatible to HDMI, VGA, DisplayPort, and other types of connections from the single USB Type-C port. We provide a distinctive electromagnetic interference (EMI) design on the back of the receptacle shell to help eliminate unwanted EMI leakage, as well as enhanced retention features, waterproof and splash proof options for better performance in rugged environments.
