Description

Four-contact sockets with two PCB mounting arrangements

UC499 and UC500 are metal-shelled female PCB sockets with a keyed rectangular mating opening and four contacts. UC499 uses through-hole contacts and four shell mounting slots. UC500 has surface-mount contact tails and four flat shell tabs. Choose the mounting arrangement and current rating for the intended assembly, then compare the mating profile and dimensional references.

The current rating is model-specific. No USB generation, data rate or protocol compatibility is specified for these sockets. The 100VAC value is a dielectric test condition, separate from the 30V rating.

Ordering housing, shell and contact plating

The three fields after UC499 or UC500 are housing colour, shell plating and contact plating. Mounting is determined by the selected model.

UC499 outline and through-hole PCB pattern

The contact tails are on 0.80mm centres before forming. The PCB signal holes use a staggered two-column pattern; the 2mm column spacing is a different dimension from the tail pitch.

A complete recommended SMT pad pattern is unspecified for UC500. Its flat shell tabs and formed contact tails require a different footprint from the UC499 through-hole pattern.
