Hirose GT17HN B Key Right Angle Cable

Dual Housing Configuration for Hirose GT17HN B Key Connections

PCM-ZC-0260 is built around a dual ended Hirose GT17HN connection, with a different housing configuration at each end. Both connector positions use the GT17HN-4DS-2C(B) B Key interface, while the P1 side is assembled with the GT17HNS-4DS-HU(B) housing and the P2 side uses the GT17HN-4DS-HU(B) housing. This arrangement gives the cable a defined connection layout rather than two identical end assemblies.

The 2000mm cable combines a USB2.0 shielded construction with four signal conductors and an outer diameter of 4.6mm. Its pin assignment carries power, differential data and ground through the corresponding contacts. The two Hirose connector assemblies also provide a specified mechanical interface for equipment wiring, automotive electronic modules and compatible USB2.0 connection systems. A black single wall casing is fitted near the cable termination for additional coverage at the specified assembly location.

Product Features and Connector Configuration

Different Housing Arrangements at Both Ends

Unlike a cable fitted with identical connector housings, PCM-ZC-0260 uses two distinct Hirose housing configurations. P1 is assembled with GT17HNS-4DS-HU(B), while P2 uses GT17HN-4DS-HU(B). Both ends retain the same GT17HN-4DS-2C(B) connector interface. This arrangement is intended for equipment layouts where the mating interface remains consistent but the required housing configuration differs between connection points. The distinction is important when checking replacement cables, installation space and mating component compatibility.

B Key Connector Interface

The GT17HN-4DS-2C(B) connector provides the B Key configuration at both cable ends. Its keyed contact arrangement helps define the intended mating orientation and reduces the risk of selecting an incompatible connector configuration during equipment integration. The original Hirose connector model is retained in the assembly, together with the specified matching housings. For replacement or new equipment projects, the complete connector and housing references should be checked rather than selecting components by appearance alone.

Four Conductor USB2.0 Wiring

The internal wiring follows a four pin USB2.0 assignment. Pin 1 carries VCC through the red conductor, Pin 2 carries D minus through white, Pin 3 carries D plus through green, and Pin 4 provides GND through black. The connector shells are also connected to ground according to the drawing. Keeping the power, differential data and ground connections clearly assigned at both ends provides a defined electrical connection for compatible equipment interfaces.

Defined Cable Construction and Mechanical Parameters

The assembly uses a 4.6mm outer diameter USB2.0 cable with a 26AWG single pair and 24AWG two core conductors, together with an overall shield. The finished cable length is 2000mm with a drawing tolerance of ±20mm. A black single wall casing with a 5.0mm outer diameter and 20mm length is included. The drawing also specifies a 90Ω characteristic impedance, a 480MHz frequency range and an operating temperature from minus 40°C to 105°C.

Applications and Assembly Options

Automotive Electronics Wiring

Can be considered for internal connections between compatible vehicle electronic modules, control equipment and USB2.0 interface systems. Connector keying and housing selection should be checked against the actual mating components before installation.

Cable Assembly Adaptation

For projects requiring a different cable length, connector orientation, pin assignment or cable construction, the assembly can be reviewed against customer drawings and reference samples. Original connector and housing specifications can be retained where required.

Equipment Interface Integration

Designed for compatible equipment requiring a USB2.0 connection through two Hirose GT17HN B Key interfaces. The different housing arrangements at P1 and P2 make the assembly relevant to wiring layouts where each connection point has its own mechanical requirements.

Product FAQ

What cable length and electrical specifications are defined ?

The drawing specifies a 2000±20mm cable, 4.6mm outer diameter, 90Ω characteristic impedance and a frequency range of 480MHz.

Are both Hirose connectors B Key versions ?

Yes. Both ends use the original GT17HN-4DS-2C(B) connector, providing the same B Key interface with different housing arrangements.

What makes the two ends of PCM-ZC-0260 different ?

P1 uses the GT17HNS-4DS-HU(B) housing, while P2 uses the GT17HN-4DS-HU(B) housing. Both ends use the same GT17HN-4DS-2C(B) connector.

How is the USB2.0 signal wiring assigned ?

Pin 1 is VCC with red wire, Pin 2 is D minus with white wire, Pin 3 is D plus with green wire, and Pin 4 is GND with black wire. Both shells are connected to ground.

Can PCM-ZC-0260 be adapted for another equipment layout ?

Yes. Cable length, connector orientation, wiring configuration and cable construction can be reviewed according to the mating interfaces and technical requirements of the project.
