Three new USB 3.0 cables from L-com Inc., North Andover, Mass., come equipped with thumbscrews for use with USB3 Vision standard applications. They are built precisely to the USB3 Vision specification hosted by the AIA (Automated Imaging Association) for the machine vision industry, but could “be designed into many other applications where the lockdown thumbscrew hardware provides a secure connection every time, said Steve Smith, product manager. “One drawback to USB connections is that the friction fit connectors can become disconnected by vibration and jostling.”
In addition to applications where the secure thumbscrew is beneficial, L-com’s USB3 Vision Cables can also be used for data storage, data acquisition, and video transfer. These USB cables are available in three versions, Type Micro B with Thumbscrews to Standard Type A, Type B with Thumbscrews to Standard Type A, and Type A with Thumbscrews to Standard Type A. All three configurations are available in a variety of off the shelf lengths including 0.3, 0.5, 1, 2, 3 or 5 meters.
