content: Hello, does anyone know what this connector is (what part number), and whether it's possible to order them from a store like Mouser? I know it's an automotive USB connector because I found it on a cable that was salvaged from a Suzuki car, and it was used to connect the car stereo with the front panel USB port. The cable itself looks like a high-quality shielded USB cable from Belden, and there are two slightly different connectors on each side (blue and brown). The blue one fits into the front USB adapter, and the brown one fits into the stereo unit.https://simssuzukiparts.co.uk/products/new-genuine-suzuki-swift-4-pin-aux-usb-wire-cable-stereo-plug-socket-39106-68l00

content: yes it is usb cable, you can do some cheap one with 0.1" idc connector,there was some in nissan car too on Ali, but the ident notch(s) near the latch and bottom where not the same, i had to do some magicsome used them but cutted out the usb end to fit the pins to a new usb plug, because compatibility is not assured with suzukiyou have this cheap one too less $$$ than suzuki lollhttps://www.aliexpress.com/i/1005003137826612.htmlat this price, it's a no brainer, i paid more than that, to fit the suzuki infotainment in a 2006 2007 Grand vitara ... the main plug is ok, but the options notantenna is Fakra connector code C i think

content: Hmm, the original part USB cable says the following, but I can't seem to find anything with this ID on the internet:Belden E357312-S 1PR28 2C20 SHIELDED USB2.0 5U AWM STYLE 2725 80C ...The cable is clearly a USB cable - it has 4 wires - red, black, green and white. The power wires (red/black) are much thicker than the data ones (green/white).The only thing that Google returns on E357312-S is some Belden CAT6 ethernet cable, but that can't be it. Maybe I can use a different cable/manufacturer in the assembly.

content: dont worry any good 4 wires plus shield is okay, the shield is most of the time connected to ground, unless the connector as a metal shield who covers the plug, and once connected it will be groundedthe belden E357312 specs attached file ... they say 5 conductors ??1.yellow2.green 3.red 4.black 5.whiteBELDEN E357312-S 5C26 AWM STYLE 246480 degree C300V VW-1 - - - AWM I/II A/BFT1 ROHS
