FAQs

A USB-C panel mount connector is a connector which utilises USB 3.1 through a Type C socket. These are usually manufactured within a robust housing which can be fitted into the panel of a product. This allows for USB 3.1 to be used in areas where the more standard USB 3.1 Type C board mount (SMT) connectors cannot be installed.

USB-C panel mounts connectors are currently not widely available with only a few companies producing them. Live Electronics Ltd supply USB Type C panel mount connectors from GT Contact who were one of the first manufacturers to start producing USB Type C panel mount connectors. We offer a range of metal and plastic style connectors with DIP or pre-wired terminations, including female panel mount to male plug or female socket variations.
