Switch panel with integrated USB install charger, ram mount 560004 — bare wires

Switch panel with integrated USB install charger by ram mount (model 560004) is a compact, hardwire-ready control panel that combines an illuminated on/off switch, a 12V socket and integrated USB-A and USB-C charging ports in a single dashboard-mounted unit. Supplied with bare wires and a 200 mm cable for the USB charger, the panel is intended for permanent installation in vehicle or marine dashboards and consoles to power accessories and provide high-speed charging to mobile devices using Quick Charge and Power Delivery protocols. Designed for custom installs, repairs and upgrades, the unit features rounded edges and built-in protections against short circuits, overvoltage and high temperatures to suit automotive, caravan and boat environments.

Advantages

The integrated combination of USB-A, USB-C and a 12V socket reduces panel space needed for power and charging while providing multiple simultaneous connections. Built-in Quick Charge and Power Delivery support enables faster charging of compatible smartphones and devices. Safety features including overvoltage, short-circuit and thermal protection plus dust/moisture protective covers improve reliability in mobile and marine settings. Simple front-panel mounting with two screw holes and pre-wired connections streamline installation for professional and DIY hardwire applications.

Suitable for

• Dashboard or console installs in cars, vans and trucks
• Motorhomes, caravans and RVs for device charging and accessory power
• Boats and marine consoles where compact, protected power outlets are required
• Custom vehicle builds, repairs and electrical upgrades requiring hardwired components

How to use

Prepare the mounting location on the dashboard or console and secure the panel using the two front screw holes. Connect the bare wires and flat connectors to the vehicle’s 12V supply and grounding points following vehicle wiring best practices; ensure power is isolated during installation. Route and secure the approximately 200 mm USB cable and any accessory wiring to prevent chafing. After connection, restore power and use the illuminated on/off switch to control power to the USB ports and 12V socket. Verify charging behaviour with compatible devices to confirm Quick Charge or Power Delivery operation.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate inline fusing on the supply line according to vehicle electrical specifications, and follow manufacturer or automotive wiring standards. Avoid exposing the panel to prolonged direct water spray; protective covers help against moisture and dust but do not replace sealed marine-rated enclosures. For installations in high-vibration environments secure cables and connectors and inspect connections periodically.
