Newnex's USB-A to USB-A cables offer seamless connectivity and high-speed data transfer, meeting USB 3.0 specifications for enhanced performance.

There are several types of USB connectors, including USB-A, USB-B, USB-C, Micro-USB, and Mini-USB. Each type has its unique design and use cases, with USB-C being the latest and most versatile.

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus. It is a standard for connecting peripherals to computers or smart phones, allowing for data transfer video display and power delivery.

In contrast, the USB 3.1 internal connectors build upon the USB 3.0 design by offering a more compact form factor and a stronger mechanical latch. While retaining the 20-pin header for single Type-C or dual Type-A connections, it introduces a 40-pin version to support two full-feature Type-C ports. These connectors ensure that the latest USB standards are accessible from the front of PC cases, facilitating easy and efficient connection for a variety of devices.

The Micro USB B connector, evolved from Mini USB, has played a pivotal role in enabling slimmer designs for mobile devices while ensuring robust connectivity to computers and hubs across various USB standards. It supports USB On-The-Go (OTG), which allows devices to interface with external peripherals such as drives and cameras, requiring specific cable wiring for OTG functionality. Known for its versatility in charging and data transfer, the Micro USB B connector is widely adopted as a critical interface in numerous portable electronics, seamlessly supporting a range of USB specifications for broad compatibility.

USB Mini A connectors, though less common than Mini B, also provided a compact solution for mobile devices and peripherals. Mini A connectors were used in some early mobile devices and portable gadgets. However, like Mini B, the trend towards smaller and more efficient connectors like micro USB and USB-C has made Mini A connectors less prevalent in modern devices.

Explore our high-quality USB-C to C and USB-C to USB cables, designed for fast, reliable connections across industrial and commercial applications.

USB Type B connectors, essential for peripherals like printers and PTZ cameras, are designed with a unique shape to prevent incorrect connections. This design safeguards your devices by making it impossible to connect two host devices together, a scenario that could lead to hardware damage. While the tech world is gradually moving towards newer, smaller connectors, USB Type B's distinct shape and its role in ensuring the right device connections keep it relevant in many setups.

In order to support the higher USB data rate, the USB 3.0 and USB 3.1 internal connectors were developed to serve to connect front panel external USB ports to the motherboard while maintaining signal integrity. The USB 3.0 internal connector features a 20-pin design that supports two USB 3.0 ports, allowing for dual USB-A connectivity at 5Gbps without bandwidth sharing. It's primarily used for linking SuperSpeed (SS) USB ports on the front panel to the motherboard.

Mini USB connectors, smaller than the standard USB B, are designed for peripherals needing a compact connection. With 5 pins, including an ID pin, they support USB On-The-Go (OTG), allowing devices like mobile phones to act as USB hosts. Originally popular in early mobilephone, USB Mini B has shifted towards use in digital cameras as devices have trended towards even smaller connectors like micro USB. Today, Mini B serves as a legacy connector, mainly found in specific devices and no longer common for new products.

When it comes to USB connections, understanding the difference between male and female connectors is essential. This section will explain how each type functions, helping you choose the right connectors for your devices and ensuring seamless data transfer and power delivery.

USB Type A is the cornerstone of USB connectors, widely recognized for its flat, rectangular shape. This connector is predominantly used on host devices like computers, gaming consoles, and TVs, as well as on USB hubs. It's designed for a unidirectional flow, usually from the host to the peripheral device, which means it provides power along with data transfer. The USB-A connector is versatile, supporting various USB standards, including USB 2.0, USB 3.0, and USB 3.2, with increasing speeds and efficiency.

USB-C, or USB Type-C, is the latest advancement in USB technology, featuring a reversible connector design that works with both host PC and peripherals. It's not just about the convenience of plugging in your cable any way—it's also about universal compatibility and future readiness. USB-C supports a wide range of standards from USB 2.0/1.1 to USB 4.0, with the latter offering impressive data transfer speeds up to 80 Gbps and power delivery up to 240W. This makes it ideal for ultra high-speed data transfer, fast charging (with or without a USB C charger), and connecting display video outputs, including USB C to HDMI.
