USB 3.1 Type C receptacle offers 2x faster transfer

The Series 898 SuperSpeed Universal Serial Bus 3.1, Type C is a mid-mount receptacle. It is 2x faster than USB 3.0 with more efficient data transfer, higher through-put, and improved I/O power efficiency.

The USB receptacle features full metal housing with EMI/RFI prevention. The Type C connector has no polarization so cables, with Type C plugs, may be connected regardless of orientation. The 3.1 version offers up to 10 Gbps transfer speed but retains backward compatibility to previous USB versions. It targets storage, smartphone, tablet, notebook, docking, automotive, and home entertainment applications.
