Universal Serial Bus connectors are also called USB connectors. A USB
connection is used as a bus-type communications or power interface between
peripheral devices. The connector pair (Figure 4-4) features a plug (male side)
coupled to its mating receptacle (female side).
Connection Instructions
Type ‘A’ Connections – Slide the plug firmly into the chassis receptacle.
Type ‘B’ Connections – Orient the plug to the receptacle and push in firmly. The
Type ‘B’ cable plug and chassis receptacle each feature a D-shaped profile that
interlock to ensure proper orientation and connector seating. By design, it is
impossible to incorrectly insert the plug into the receptacle.
