Space saving DualSLIM USB Feedthrough Connectors
now available from CLIFF™ Electronics.
Saves space on control panels and reduces component count.
Provide simultaneous data transfer and power.
CLIFF™ Electronics has expanded its popular FT connector range with the addition of dual USB 2.0, USB 3.0 and USB-C metal feedthrough connectors. The new dual connector design saves panel space and component count. They are simple to integrate into control panels as both sides use standard USB cables simplifying the assembly process and making it easier to service or repurpose.
Higher connectivity in same panel space...
The connectors are available in durable silver-finished metal or black metal finishes and suitable for a wide variety of applications, including:
- automotive connectivity,
- consumer electronics,
- smart home devices,
- medical equipment,
- audio / broadcast systems,
- charging stations and power banks.
The introduction of these dual USB passthrough keystone couplers helps streamline the setup of modern devices, offering convenience and flexibility for both data and power needs.
CLIFF™ feedthrough connectors are designed to be assembled into an industry-standard, 24 mm diameter, XLR connector panel cut-out in an enclosure or 19″ rack panel. Using industry-standard panel cut-outs simplifies system design and assembly and improves system aesthetics. esthetics. Pre-assembled rack panels are available on request.
Key features:
- Higher connectivity in same panel space with 2 USB ports in the same industry standard XLR panel cutout (24mm). Space saving is now a key driver in rack and enclosure design.
- Simplified cabling with reduction in the number of required panel cutouts and mounting hardware. Less machining reduces manufacturing costs and a reduced number of cables through the panel improves reliability and aesthetics.esthetics.
- Cost efficient by reducing components required and economies of scale in component purchasing and assembly.
- Cleaner and more professional installations achieved by using one symmetrical, dual-port mount, reducing panel clutter and simplifying labelling. Important in customer-facing or high-visibility equipment (e.g. AV, broadcast, live events).
- Fewer points of failure as a result of fewer mechanical mountings reducing the chance of loose or misaligned connectors, improving mechanical durability and long-term reliability.
