USB connectors are rectangular connectors used for communication and power supply (interfacing) between computers, peripherals and other computers.

More reliable than RJ45.  TE offers a broad range of industrial USB connectors. The IP20 series features an integrated locking mechanism with audible and tactile feedback, creating an excellent interconnect solution for internal USB cable routing without having to worry about the plug coming loose during transit and use. A sealed and highly reliable version (IP65/IP67) for rugged and harsh environments is also available.
