which will protect it from shocks, dust and fluids.
No hazardous on-field cabling and grounding!
Also available a version including plug + cordset: see next page.
This metallic plug is connected into a receptacle, using a Tri Start Thread cou-
pling mechanism (MIL-DTL-38999 series III type) with anti-decoupling device
for high vibrations.

Assembly instructions
Can be used with most the USB3.0 cordset brands : No tools required!
Plug assembly
1. Insert the USB3 cordset into the metallic backshell
2. Insert the retention spacer laterally to the cable (this spacer is soft,
in order to adapt to different shapes of overmolding) and slide the
overmolding of the USB3-A plug into this retention spacer
3. Insert the friction ring laterally to the cable
4. Choose the right coding (2 positions) and insert the USB-A plug into
the protective plug.Note at this step, the main key is used for polar-
ization through the blue seal.

7. Screw the backshell on the plug body. A wrench can be necessary to
fully tighten it, and the connection to the receptacle can help

In some applications, a transversal sealing for the receptacle is a « must ».
This will prevent fluids and dust from going through the receptacle when
plug or cap are not mated to the receptacle. The sealed solution (version
"S") has a compound at the rear of the receptacle below. In addition,
the Sealed USB3F TV has been successfully tested in very high vibration
corresponding to airplane applications.
