Schneider Electric XB5PUSB3 USB 3.0 Type A-A Panel Mount Socket 22mm

The Schneider Electric XB5PUSB3 is a professional-grade USB 3.0 Type A-A panel mount socket designed for seamless integration into industrial control panels and electrical enclosures. Engineered for standard 22mm diameter cutouts, this connector provides a robust and reliable interface for high-speed data transmission. Its compact design ensures it fits efficiently into existing control systems, maintaining the integrity of the enclosure while offering convenient external access to USB ports for maintenance, programming, or data logging tasks.

Advantages

This panel mount socket offers exceptional durability and performance in demanding industrial environments. By utilizing the USB 3.0 standard, it supports faster data transfer rates compared to older generations, ensuring efficient communication between external devices and internal controllers. The 22mm mounting diameter aligns with standard industrial push-button and indicator cutouts, simplifying the installation process and reducing the need for additional panel modifications. Its secure design helps maintain the protection rating of the enclosure, preventing dust and debris from compromising internal components while providing a stable connection point.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation control panels
• Data logging and diagnostic equipment
• Programming interfaces for PLCs and HMIs
• External connectivity for electrical enclosures

This product is not intended for high-vibration environments where a locking mechanism might be required, nor is it suitable for outdoor applications without additional protective covers to ensure ingress protection. It should not be used in environments where the operating temperature exceeds the manufacturer's specified limits for industrial electronic components.

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB 3.0 Type A-A
• Mounting diameter: 22 mm
• Width: 28 mm
• Height: 28 mm
• Depth: 44 mm

To install the socket, ensure the panel has a clean 22mm circular cutout. Insert the connector through the front of the panel and secure it firmly using the provided locking nut from the rear. Once mounted, connect the internal USB cable to your controller or device inside the enclosure. Ensure that the cable routing does not interfere with other electrical components and that the connection is fully seated to maintain signal integrity.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the panel thickness is compatible with the mounting hardware
• Ensure the internal space is sufficient for the 44mm depth
• Check that the USB 3.0 standard is compatible with your existing hardware

For optimal performance, ensure that the USB cable connected to the rear of the socket is shielded and properly routed away from high-voltage power lines to minimize electromagnetic interference.
