Fervit USB 2.0 Type C Female Socket

This product is a pack of ten DIY connector kits from Fervit. Each kit provides a 4-pin USB 2.0 Type C female socket designed for surface-mount assembly. The sockets come pre-attached to a small printed circuit board and include a matching housing. They are intended for hobbyists or technicians building or repairing custom cables and devices.

Suits makers adding a USB C port to a project

These connectors suit anyone assembling a cable with a 3.0 mm outer diameter who is comfortable with surface-mount soldering. The included housing helps secure the connection once soldered. Builders who need a through-hole footprint, a different cable diameter, or a USB standard beyond 2.0 should look at other component types.

4-pin USB 2.0 interface with 3.0 mm cable entry

The critical specification is the 4-pin USB 2.0 interface, which defines the electrical connections available on the socket. The kit is specifically built for cables with a 3.0 mm outer diameter, so the cable you intend to use must match this dimension for the housing to fit correctly.

Questions about this item

What cable diameter does the 3.0 mm strain relief on this Fervit USB 2.0 Type C socket accept?

The strain relief is sized for an outer diameter of 3.0 mm, so cables with that OD will fit securely when soldered to the board.

Which pads on the 4-pin SMT board must be soldered first to avoid mis-aligning the Type C housing?

Tack the two outer shield tabs to the PCB before soldering the four signal pins; this locks the connector square and prevents the housing from sitting crooked.

When the USB 2.0 Type C female socket wears out, can the connector alone be swapped without replacing the whole PC board?

The socket is surface-mounted to the supplied PC board, so replacement requires desoldering the old connector and soldering a new one to the same board.
