GSB316441CEU is a USB 3.0 Standard-A Type plug connector designed for right-angle surface-mount applications. The connector features a high-temperature thermal insulator rated UL 94HB in blue color, with phosphor bronze contacts plated with gold (2 µ" minimum thickness) over palladium-nickel plating (30 µ" minimum on contact area). The shell is constructed from SPCC material with nickel plating (50 µ" minimum) over copper plating (30 µ" minimum). The soldering tail is finished with either 100 µ" minimum matte tin plating or 2 µ" minimum gold plating, with 80 µ" minimum nickel under-plating overall. This connector is RoHS compliant per directive 2002/95/EC and contains no environmental hazardous materials. It is commonly used in high-speed data transfer applications requiring reliable surface-mount connectivity in consumer electronics, computing devices, and industrial equipment.
