Reliable data transmission for ruggedized equipment
• HIGH SPEED DATA TRANSMISSION • USB-C COMPATIBLE • USB 3.2 GEN2 COMPATIBLE • EMI / RFI PROTECTION
The CMA USBC brings the USB-C standard into demanding field environments. Stainless steel, IP68-sealed, and EMI/RFI shielded, it delivers reliable high-speed data transmission for ruggedized equipment — where standard USB-C connectors would not withstand mechanical, thermal, or environmental constraints.
USB-C performance in a stainless steel, field-ready connector
Designed for equipment requiring USB-C connectivity without compromising on robustness, the CMA USBC combines the versatility of the USB-C interface with the mechanical protection of the CMA family. Its push-pull locking and sealed construction make it suitable for portable soldier equipment, rugged computers, and any platform requiring secure, repeatable USB-C connections in operational conditions.
