INTRODUCTION  

  

The USBT102 Series Dual USB Charging Port is a power accessory that converts 10 to 32 volts of DC 

electrical input from a power supply to standard 5V power for any electronic product that charges using a 
USB connector. The USBT102 provides two Universal Serial Bus-A (USB-A) ports and can be rear 
mounted or front mounted in a variety of locations throughout a vehicle. The unit has been rigorously 
tested, providing confidence and convenience to be mounted in either the cabin or cockpit.  
  

This Dual USB Charging Port is designed as a DCP (Dedicated Charging Port) to industry-standard 

protocol per the 

USB Battery Charging 1.2 Compliance Plan

. Early-generation or smaller consumer 

electronics typically accept one (1.0) amp of power during charging. However, newer electronics, such as 
the Apple iPad

®

, other tablets and larger devices can accept and, in some cases, require up to 2.1 amps 

of power to charge and operate. As a high power DCP, the USBT102 can provide up to 2.1 amps of 
power to charge any USB device, including the higher demand products. Unlike most dual USB chargers 
which provide one (1.0) amp on one port and 2.1 amps on the second port, the USBT102 can provide 2.1 
amps of power to both ports simultaneously. With features like short circuit protection, over-current 
protection, low voltage shut-down and temperature monitoring, it can handle unforeseen conditions safely.   
  

Small, compact and powerful, with plenty of installation flexibility, the USBT102 is an ideal choice when 

selecting a highly useful and effective addition to any vehicle.
