Product Description
This 16‑pin Type‑C receptacle is tailored for high‑power charging stations and power hubs that need a rugged connector with optional USB 2.0 functionality but without SuperSpeed pairs. The pinout typically includes multiple high‑current VBUS/GND contacts, CC1/CC2 for orientation and current advertisement, optional D+/D− for service, metering, or simple data, and optional SBU for accessory modes; SuperSpeed pins are omitted to simplify layout and enhance robustness. A reinforced metal shell with multiple ground tabs and through‑hole retention posts delivers excellent mechanical strength and a low‑impedance path to chassis for EMI/ESD control. Hard‑gold plating on power and signal contacts ensures low resistance and long life. Available in right‑angle SMT with shell stakes, vertical THT, and mid‑mount variants; panel gaskets and dust caps are available to improve system‑level ingress resistance.

- Soldering: SMT reflow (shell stakes wave/selective solder) or THT
- Retention: reinforced shell with through‑hole posts for high pull‑out strength
Applications:
- Multi‑port charging stations and public charging kiosks
- Desktop power hubs, docks, and cradles
- Wall chargers, in‑counter charging bars, hospitality/retail charge points
- Battery cabinets, tool chargers, micro‑mobility charging bays
- Service/power inlets for gateways, routers, and industrial devices
Customization options:
- 3 A or 5 A rating; contact plating thickness; shell finish (Ni/Sn/Ag options)
- Mounting style: RA SMT with stakes, vertical THT, mid‑mount; standoff height
- Ground tab count/style; alignment pegs; panel‑mount bezel with gasket; dust cap
- Insulator color, marking/logo, packaging (tape‑and‑reel, tray)
- Optional integration of light‑pipe or locating features for front panels
Notes:
- 5 A and EPR operation require a PD3.1‑capable controller and an e‑marked 5 A cable; implement OVP/OCP, thermal monitoring, and proper creepage/clearance.
- If SuperSpeed data is required, choose a full 24‑pin USB‑C receptacle.
- Follow IEC/UL safety and surge standards applicable to public charging installations.
