InLine USB 3.1 Snap-In module, USB-C F/F, white housing

The InLine USB 3.1 Snap-In module is a compact, flat USB-C F/F insert designed to provide a clean and reliable USB-C connection in equipment panels, enclosures or custom housings. With a white plastic housing and a lightweight construction of approximately 7 g, the module is intended for straightforward integration where space is limited. Its small footprint (24 mm width, 30 mm depth) allows installation in slim panels while maintaining USB 3.1 signal compatibility for data transfer.

Advantages

The snap-in design enables quick installation without the need for complex mounting hardware, and the female-to-female USB-C interface simplifies inline connection between internal cables or board-level connectors. The low-profile flat construction reduces protrusion behind the panel and the white housing provides a neutral appearance for many enclosures. Its light weight supports use in lightweight or mobile devices where added mass should be minimised.

Suitable for

• Panel or chassis integration of USB-C ports
• Custom enclosures and instrument housings
• Repair or replacement of existing USB-C female ports
• Prototyping and small-scale electronics projects requiring USB-C interface

How to use

Prepare a compatible panel cut-out sized to the module dimensions and insert the snap-in module into the opening until it clicks into place. Connect internal USB-C cables or mating connectors to the module’s female ports as required, ensuring correct orientation and secure mating. Verify signal routing and grounding according to the host device’s design to maintain USB 3.1 performance. If removal is needed, depress retaining features and pull the module out carefully to avoid damage to surrounding material.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use shielded USB-C cables and maintain proper cable management to prevent strain on the connector. Avoid exposing the module to moisture or excessive mechanical stress. When integrating into metal panels, ensure appropriate grounding to reduce electromagnetic interference and preserve data integrity.
