The Amphenol USB Field system transforms standard USB 2.0 cordsets into robust connectors designed for harsh environments. It offers superior protection against fluids and dust (IP67 rated), as well as resistance to shock, vibration, and traction. The system eliminates the need for in-field cabling operations and tools, featuring mechanical coding/polarization for secure connections. Enhanced EMI protection is achieved through conductive plated shells and metallized receptacle inserts. Applications include embedded computers and data acquisition/transmission in demanding sectors like railways, battlefield communication systems, and navy systems.
