Modern electronic devices must handle increasing amounts of data while reliably supplying power to high-performance components. As a result, requirements for transmission speed, power delivery capabilities, and the mechanical reliability of interfaces continue to grow.
With the DX07 series, Rutronik offers a family of USB Type-C connectors designed to meet a wide range of requirements for data communication, power delivery, and connection reliability. Developers benefit from a versatile interface that combines multiple functions in a single, compact connector, reducing space requirements and simplifying system integration.
High-speed data transmission and high-power delivery via a single interface
Depending on the configuration, connectors in the DX07 series support USB4 and Thunderbolt 5 applications, enabling high-speed data transfer. These technologies facilitate the rapid transmission of large amounts of data, making them particularly suitable for data-intensive applications such as high-performance peripherals, external storage systems, and high-resolution displays. Shorter transfer times can improve system responsiveness and support efficient workflows, even when handling large data volumes.
Another advantage is support for USB Power Delivery applications of up to 240 W, depending on the connector configuration and the capabilities of the overall system. This enables devices with higher power requirements to receive power through the USB Type-C interface. Combining data transfer and power delivery in a single connector reduces the number of interfaces and cables required. This simplifies device integration, saves installation space, and reduces system complexity. The reversible USB Type-C interface allows the connector to be inserted in either orientation. This makes handling more convenient, simplifies device connections, and eliminates the need to check plug orientation before insertion.
Mechanical Locking Mechanism for Greater Connection Security
The DX07 series also includes versions with a mechanical locking mechanism for applications with demanding connection reliability requirements. The locking mechanism provides secure connector retention, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection caused by cable tension or vibration. In industrial environments, mobile devices, or frequently moved systems, an interrupted connection can result in data loss, operational disruptions, or downtime. Mechanical locking helps maintain reliable data transfer and power delivery, improving operational reliability. At the same time, developers can take advantage of the compact, widely adopted USB Type-C interface in applications where conventional connector retention may be insufficient.
Feature Overview
- Data transfer: Support for USB4 and Thunderbolt 5 applications, depending on the model, enables high-speed communication for data-intensive applications.
- Power delivery: Support for USB Power Delivery applications of up to 240 W, depending on the configuration, enables power delivery to high-performance devices through the USB Type-C interface.
- Compact design: A single interface for data transfer and power delivery reduces space requirements and cabling complexity.
- Reversible connector: The USB Type-C design allows insertion in either orientation for easy and convenient handling.
- Connection security: Optional mechanical locking provides secure connector retention and reduces the risk of accidental disconnection.
- Versatility: Different configurations allow developers to select connectors based on application-specific requirements for data transfer, power delivery, and mechanical locking.
Versatile applications, ranging from peripheral devices to industrial electronics
The JAE DX07 series is suitable for a wide range of electronic devices requiring high-speed data communication, high-power delivery, or enhanced connection reliability. Typical applications include high-performance computer peripherals, docking stations, external storage solutions, and industrial control and communication equipment.
Integrating data transfer and power delivery into a single interface offers significant design advantages, particularly in compact systems. Device manufacturers can reduce the number of separate connectors, freeing up space for other components. In applications exposed to mechanical stress, lockable versions help prevent connection interruptions and support reliable operation.
With the DX07 series, JAE offers a flexible family of connectors that combines high data transfer rates, high-performance power delivery, and mechanical safety. The various configurations allow developers to tailor the USB Type-C interface specifically to the requirements of their respective applications.
