PUSH-PULLYOUR CONFIGURABLE SOLUTIONS

Equipped with ever more sensors, objects, vehicles and machines are intensively communicating witheach other and with the outside world thanks to the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT). The
reliable transfer of an increasing amount of data in the shortest possible time is becoming more andmore important.
The new LEMO USB 3.1 connectors were developed to satisfy the most demanding connection
requirements for high-speed data transfer using the USB protocol up to 10 Gb/s. They complete
LEMO’s extensive portfolio for robust and durable High-speed solutions and testify to the company’slong experience in signal integrity.
Very compact and robust, these Push-Pull connectors are available in different models and series; andthey can be used for indoor as well as outdoor demanding environments (e.g. extreme temperatures,
high humidity) for applications in defense, industrial & robotics, data communication, automotive andtest & measurements.

Main customer benefits of LEMO’s USB 3.1 solutions
Proprietary interface¹
to carry sensitive information
in total security in harsh environments

Push-Pull latching systemenabling simple/quick yet safeand reliable frequent connect and disconnect

Guaranteed signal integrity and compliance
to USB 3.1 protocol enabling
to transmit data up to 10 Gb/s

Broad range of robust and miniature models,including IP68 mated, providing lasting
compact integrations

360° screening for full EMC shielding

Up to 5000 mating cycles guaranteed providing
longer service life & optimized cost of ownership¹ These LEMO specific connectors can transmit data using the USB 3.1 protocol , but they are not USB®-standard connectors.
Their proprietary interface is compliant with the Universal Serial Bus specification 3.1 and can be used for 10 Gb/s applications with cables up to 1.5m.
While using a proprietary interface guaranteeing high-quality signal within a very robust casing, the LEMO connectors can also be usedin conjunction with standard USB type interfaces (e.g. Type-C) in a cable assembly.

High-speed interconnect solutions
Selecting a USB 3.1 connector does not automatically guarantee complianceto this protocol and the related data transfer speed for the complete interconnect solution. In fact, the cable has to at least comply to the same protocol,
respect the maximum length given in the protocol and be carefully assembled
to the connector; the solution has then to be fully tested.
