PENGLIN 2PCS USB 3.1 Type - Review

When it comes to connecting devices, especially in harsh environments, having the right hardware is crucial. PENGLIN offers a solution to this problem with their 2PCS USB 3.1 Type C Panel Mount Coupler.

This coupler allows for the connection of two USB Type-C cables, extending the overall reach and making it ideal for situations where a longer cable length is required. With its female port, it can also connect other devices, making it versatile and useful for a range of applications.

One of the standout features of this coupler is its easy installation. Its standard D-Series Connector for Panel Mount Installations means no soldering or complicated installation tools are necessary. This makes it convenient and accessible for anyone needing to extend their USB Type-C cables.

Another feature that should be noted is its durability. Made with a Zinc alloy material, it is scratch-resistant and built to withstand a range of harsh environments, including acid, alkali, and oxidation. This guarantees the stability of the current flowing through the coupler, ensuring reliable connectivity.

However, it is important to note some limitations with this product. According to PENGLIN, if users try coupling two cables for a total length longer than 6FT/1.8M, they could run into data and/or power issues. If this happens, it is advised to couple shorter USB Type-C cables and make sure they are Type C 3.1.

Another concern is the industry standard issue related to the USB 3.1 standard's backward compatibility with USB 2.0. Every time a USB Type-C female to female adapter like this is plugged in, there is a 50% chance it may not work. To solve this, users can simply unplug, reverse one side, and insert again.

Overall, the PENGLIN 2PCS USB 3.1 Type C Panel Mount Coupler is a practical and durable solution for extending USB Type-C cables. Despite its limitations, the easy installation and superior construction make this a worthwhile purchase for those in need of an adapter that can withstand harsh environments. With a 3.8 out of 5-star rating and 17 reviews, it is clear that this coupler has been well-received by users.
