June 6, 2014
I/O connector handles data from 5 Gbps for USB 3.0 up to 10 Gbps for USB 3.1 super speed in a Micro USB 2.0 form factor with rapid charging from a 3 A battery charger.

The new High-Speed Multi I/O Connector from TE transfers USB 3.1 signals in a Micro USB 2.0 form factor for slimmer mobile and wearable devices with increased functionality, higher speed and larger screens that require high-power battery consumption. Handling data from 5 Gbps for USB 3.0 up to 10 Gbps for USB 3.1 super speed, the connector features improved durability and EMI performance, with rapid charging from a 3 A battery charger and 2 A additional power over four optional additional pins. The device allows users to run high-speed data, video and power charging through one single connector and provides external video display connectivity including MyDP and MHL capability. The high-speed multi I/O connector receptacle is 7.52 mm wide, the same width as a standard Micro USB 2.0 receptacle, and comes with various pin position options such as 5+4 and 5+8. The multi I/O receptacle also offers backward compatibility with standard Micro USB 2.0 plugs.
