Bulgin has added USB Type-C 3.2 Gen 2×2 connector options to its Buccaneer range of robust connectors.

The 4000 Series connectors have a USB-C 2×12 contact arrangement and can support 20Gbit/s (1m length cable USB3.2 Gen 2×2, 10Gbit/s over 2m cable).

Power rating is 100W, in line with Type-C Power Delivery specs.

Mating endurance is 1,000 cycles and operational is over -40 to +80°C.

Sealing is to IP66, IP68 and IP69K, making them resilient to liquid and dust ingress, and they comply with EN60068-2-52 for salt mist exposure, making them suitable for marine deployment. Bayonet locking improves mechanical integrity and braided cables are protected by a PVC jacket.

The USB-C connector shell has a stainless steel construction with nickel plating, and the contacts are made from copper alloy with a gold finish with 40mΩ (max) contact resistance.
