24Pin Waterproof USB-C Receptacle for Industrial, Outdoor & High-Speed Charging Devices
The USB-TC24-FW02 is a 24-pin waterproof USB Type-C female receptacle with vertical SMT mounting. The plug enters perpendicular to the PCB. It has a sealed structure for equipment exposed to water and dust, and is rated for 10,000 mating cycles. Suitable for industrial controllers, outdoor communication equipment and marine electronics.
Product Overview
The USB-TC24-FW02 is a 24 pin waterproof usb c receptacle with vertical SMT mounting. The plug opening faces up, perpendicular to the PCB, so it suits designs where the sealed enclosure panel sits parallel to and above the board. It is designed for devices exposed to moisture, dust and vibration, with a sealed structure. Contact us for the IP rating and test report for this part.
It uses the full 24-pin Type-C layout: SuperSpeed TX/RX differential pairs, D+/D- lines, CC lines, SBU lines, VBUS and GND, with reversible insertion. VBUS is rated up to 5A at 20V DC, which supports up to 100W (20V / 5A) with a compatible PD controller. The connector is rated for 10,000 mating cycles.
Looking for a different mounting? See UCF24W0403 (vertical version), UCF24W0411 (right-angle SMT), USB-TC24-FW05 (SMT + DIP) and USB-TC24-FW10 (mid-mount with screw holes). For signal assignment, see our USB-C pinout guide. For official standards, see the USB Type-C specification from USB-IF.

Frequently Asked Questions
What waterproof rating does this connector have?
USB-TC24-FW02 uses a sealed structure for protection against water and dust. The IP rating and test condition depend on the final part and the mounting method. Contact us for the test report and the current rating for this model.
Does this connector support USB Power Delivery?
VBUS is rated up to 5A at 20V DC, so it supports up to 100W (20V / 5A) with a compatible PD controller. PD negotiation is handled by the controller on your board, not by the connector.
What is the difference between a 24-pin and a 16-pin waterproof USB-C connector?
A 24-pin receptacle has the full pin set, including the SuperSpeed TX/RX pairs, CC lines and sideband signals. A 16-pin receptacle carries only USB 2.0 data and power, and a 6-pin receptacle is for power only. See our waterproof USB-C connector guide.
What is the difference between USB-TC24-FW02 and the other 24-pin waterproof models?
FW02 is a vertical SMT part with a sealed structure. UCF24W0403 is also a vertical 24-pin waterproof receptacle. FW05 is an SMT + DIP right-angle part, FW10 is a mid-mount part with screw holes, and UCF24W0411 is right-angle SMT. Check the 2D drawings of FW02 and UCF24W0403 side by side before switching between them, as the two are close in mounting orientation.
What are the MOQ, lead time and samples?
MOQ is 1,000 pcs and lead time is 2–4 weeks for production quantities. Free samples are available for qualified projects, along with the datasheet and 2D/3D drawing on request.
