The SeaI/O-270 integrates SeaLATCH USB ports, which are fully compatible with standard USB
cables. When used with the included USB cable (Item#
CA356
) with a SeaLATCH USB Type B
connector, the metal thumbscrew provides a secure metal-to-metal connection to the hub and
prevents accidental cable disconnection.
The hub’s seven SeaLATCH Type A USB connectors can secure USB peripherals to the hub in the
same way. Sealevel incorporates SeaLATCH locking USB ports on many USB I/O devices.
Accidental cable disconnection is the most common point of failure with USB industrial I/O
devices and SeaLATCH cables and connectors prevents that while being fully compatible with
standard USB cables.
Examples of the SeaI/O-270U with SeaLATCH equipped Sealevel I/O devices are shown below.
