USB 3.0 B Male to B Female Panel-Mount Extension, 1 m

Type B is the connector of things that stay put: printers, scanners, audio interfaces, CNC controllers and lab instruments. This cable extends one to the panel: a B female socket on a panel-mount head with locking screws — the thumb screws mate with the threaded holes around a B male plug and hold the connection against vibration and cable tugs — and 1 m of fully shielded cable runs back to a USB 3.0 B male that lives in the host or hub.

Electricals are the SuperSpeed set: compliant with USB 3.0 standards, speeds up to 5 Gbps, backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1, and fully shielded to reduce interference — the shield matters around printers and motorised equipment where switching noise is ambient. The ultra-flexible cord fits tight spaces, and the moulding comes in black or customised colours for OEM runs.

Specifications

Typical install: the printer or instrument keeps its factory lead plugged into the panel socket; the wall socket itself stays wired to the computer — so relocating equipment means moving the device, not crawling behind the desk to unplug the B plug.

Typical applications

• Printer and scanner ports brought to desk or rack panels
• Instrument enclosures and machine cabinets
• OEM builds needing locking B-type wall sockets
