USB Type-C Test Fixture for Cable Tester

15 August 2017 - CAMI Research released a USB Type-C test interface board for its CableEye cable and harness testing systems. A daughter board populated with two USB-C female connectors allows users to continuity-check USB Type-C terminated cables using the CableEye tester while seeing the connectors-under-test rendered graphically. The CB26U fits all CableEye models.

CAMI offers the CableEye suite of products complete with accessories – including “connector boards”. The selection of these test fixture boards is constantly growing and is currently numbering over 60 – most of which are populated with ‘families’ of connectors. When pre-populated boards are used, the tester GUI automatically displays a graphic of the connectors under test.

Sold as a set of two boards, each CB26U accepts two USB Type-C connectors. In addition to the latest CableEye software, it requires the CB26 small-frame motherboard (Item 756) for operation, and plugs into one of two available slots – two USB-C-connectors can be tested simultaneously. The CB26 (with CB26U) attaches to the tester like a regular connector board.

All connector boards are included in CableEye’s standard, renewable one-year warranty of the tester for which it was purchased.

Availability & Domestic US Pricing

Available immediately, a CB26U set is $185 (Item 756U), and requires a CB26 set (Item 756) for mounting and the latest CableEye software.
