USB Panel-Mount Type A Cable

The 1598 series cable is a USB A male to USB A female cable, used as an extension cable in which the female panel end can be mounted on a face plate, a wall plate, or a bulkhead surface. This creates a panel-mounted USB jack wherever you need it with minimal installation work.

These cables are an ideal method to remotely mount USB ports for easy removal of portable devices. The moulded panel-mount USB connector with embedded nuts ensures a sturdy and reliable attachment to your bulkhead or wall panel.

You can also use this cable to wall-mount USB ports on wall plates such as our USB faceplate, VGA & USB plate, or DVI & USB plate.

These cables have a black PVC jacket, and are shielded by both a foil wrap and a braid wrap. This is the highest grade of shielding available for this type of cable.

We carry similar mounting cables with USB-B panel-mounts, as well as a USB-A panel-mount to USB-B cable. We also now offer a dual panel-mounting USB cable, for directly connecting two wall plates.

Please note that if you would like to extend your USB connection more than 15 feet from source to device, you'll need to use an active USB booster cable or active USB booster.

For information about selecting, installing, and using wall plates in your applications, see our Guide to Face Plates.
