USB-C connector ShiverPeaks 13-60003 40 Gbps metal housing, single-ended data/charging connector

The ShiverPeaks USB-C connector 13-60003 is a single-ended USB-C termination engineered for high-speed data transfer and power delivery. Housed in a metal shell, this connector supports USB-C interfaces up to 40 Gbps and is intended for use in custom cable assemblies, device repairs, and applications where mechanical robustness and EMI shielding are required. Its compact form factor allows easy integration into cables and products that need a reliable, high-bandwidth USB-C termination.

Advantages

The metal housing provides enhanced mechanical durability and EMI protection compared with plastic alternatives, improving signal integrity at high transfer rates. Single-ended design simplifies termination for one-sided cable assemblies and repairs, while compatibility with USB-C power delivery enables both data and charging functions through the same connector. The compact profile is suitable for tight installations and industrial or consumer devices where space is limited.

Suitable for

• Custom USB-C cable assemblies requiring 40 Gbps data support
• Device repair and replacement of damaged USB-C terminations
• Industrial equipment where EMI shielding and mechanical robustness are important
• Consumer electronics projects needing compact, high-bandwidth connectors

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB-C single-ended termination
• Data transfer capability: up to 40 Gbps
• Housing material: metal shell for shielding and durability
• Functionality: supports both high-speed data and power delivery
• Form factor: compact, suitable for tight cable routing

How to use

Prepare the cable by stripping shielding and insulation according to the connector manufacturer's recommended lengths. Align and solder or crimp conductors to the connector contacts following the correct pinout for USB-C high-speed and power lines; ensure differential pairs are handled to preserve signal integrity. After termination, verify mechanical fit of the metal housing and secure any strain relief. Test the assembled cable for continuity, correct power delivery behavior, and data throughput up to the intended speed.

Recommendations

For reliable 40 Gbps performance, use controlled-impedance cable materials and follow best practices for high-speed differential pair routing. Ensure proper grounding of the metal housing to maintain EMI shielding. Validate final assemblies with appropriate testing equipment for data throughput and power delivery before deployment in critical applications.
