Description
The USB 2.0 Type-B Panel Mount Extension Cable is a specialized interconnect designed to route USB-B ports securely through enclosures, instrument panels, or custom 3D-printed housings. Measuring 30 cm in length, this extension cable features a standard USB Type-B male connector on one end and a panel-mountable USB Type-B female port equipped with integrated M3 screw mounting holes on the other.
Constructed with 28AWG internal conductors and comprehensive outer braiding, this heavy-duty cable maintains high-speed USB 2.0 data integrity without signal degradation. It is an ideal solution for cleanly routing printer, scanner, or controller ports to the exterior of control boxes, custom enclosures, and electronics test rigs.
Note: M3 mounting bolts are required for panel installation and are not included in the package.
Key Features
- Panel Mount Design: Features a secure female USB-B port with integrated screw flanges for clean enclosure integration.
- Standard USB 2.0 Interconnect: Bridges USB Type-B male connections to a panel-accessible female port for easy peripheral access.
- Rugged Shielded Construction: Built with 28AWG wiring and a protective outer braid to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI).
- Standardized Fasteners: Designed to accept standard M3 bolts for robust mechanical mounting onto metal, plastic, or wooden panels.
Benefits
- Streamlined Enclosure Design: Eliminates the need to cut complex custom access slots for internal ports; simply mount the USB port directly to the chassis wall.
- Protects Onboard Ports: Acts as a sacrificial extension, preventing physical wear and tear on sensitive internal device sockets from frequent plugging.
- Reliable Data Transmission: High-purity copper conductors ensure error-free communication for printers, scanners, and external drives.
Applications
- Custom Enclosures & Control Boxes: Bringing a USB-B programming or data port to the outside of a custom-built electronics housing or machine cabinet.
- 3D Printer Upgrades: Relocating the mainboard USB connection to an easily accessible exterior panel on custom 3D printer enclosures.
- Industrial & Test Equipment: Extending USB-B printer, scanner, or hard disk interfaces for secure, permanent panel mounting.
Package Includes
- 1 x USB 2.0 Type-B Male to Female Panel Mount Printer Extension Cable (30 cm)
