Connection and Ordering Overview
Right Angle Micro USB Cable for Tight Equipment Layouts
A cable can fit the socket and still leave no room to close the enclosure. The BC-DAD002 series offers eight USB-A-to-Micro-B angle combinations, so the cable exits the port in the direction your equipment needs. Choose a straight USB-A end with an angled Micro-B plug, or an angled plug at both ends when clearance is limited on both sides.
These are USB 2.0 data-and-power cable configurations, not Ethernet or PoE cables. They suit equipment with a five-pin Micro-B device port, such as compatible controllers, handheld terminals and service interfaces. Before ordering, compare the connector shape and the space around the port; the model name alone doesn’t confirm fit.

Choose the Exit Direction, Not Just the Angle Name
Left and right can reverse when you view a drawing from the mating face instead of the connector’s rear. Send a straight-on photograph of the device port, mark the desired cable route, and include nearby walls or adjacent connectors. We can then use the same reference when we make the sample.
Leave room for the molded housing, strain relief, and metal plug. An angled connector helps route the cable along a surface, but it isn’t a locking mechanism and shouldn’t carry the weight of an unsupported cable bundle.
Plan Data and Power Together
The 480Mbps figure describes USB 2.0 High-Speed signaling, not guaranteed file-transfer throughput. A cable does not make a slower device faster. Power available to the device depends on the source, charging behavior, conductor resistance, and cable length. Do not assume a computer port can deliver a particular charging current simply because the cable has a Micro-B plug.
For a straightforward route, compare our straight Micro USB 5-pin cable. If the host has USB-C, use our Micro USB cable range to find the right host-side interface instead of adding an unnecessary adapter.
Straight USB-A to Angled Micro-B Options
Choose a straight USB-A plug with a Micro-B cable exit that clears your enclosure. Match the direction to the product drawing and your installed port orientation; the suffix alone does not guarantee a fit.
A straight USB-A plug connects to the host, while the left-angle Micro-B end routes the cable alongside the device. Before selecting this version, check the installed port orientation and nearby obstructions against the drawing.
P/N: BC-DAD002-L
Use the right-angle Micro-B exit when your enclosure layout needs the cable to run to that side of the device port. The USB-A end remains straight; confirm rear clearance for its molded housing and strain relief.
P/N: BC-DAD002-R
The up-angle Micro-B plug offers a vertical cable exit with a straight USB-A host connection. Useful where side clearance is limited, this option still needs enough space above the port for the housing and cable routing.
P/N: BC-DAD002-U
The down-angle Micro-B end directs the cable toward the lower routing path shown in the drawing. Check the enclosure base, mounting surface, and strain-relief clearance before ordering; the USB-A connector is straight.
P/N: BC-DAD002-D
Dual-Angle USB-A to Micro-B Options
These four combinations angle both ends of the cable. Check clearance at the USB-A host port as well as the Micro-B device port, and mark both exit directions on your installation sketch.
Right-angle plugs at both the USB-A and Micro-B ends can help route a cable between closely spaced equipment surfaces. Check each connector independently: the two ports may face different directions once the devices are installed.
P/N: BC-DAD002-RR
This combination pairs a right-angle USB-A plug with a left-angle Micro-B plug. It is an option for layouts needing different exits at the host and device; an installation sketch helps confirm the route before sampling.
P/N: BC-DAD002-RL
A left-angle USB-A plug and right-angle Micro-B plug provide an alternative route when a straight host connector would interfere with adjacent equipment. Confirm both mating-face views and the required cable length on the same drawing.
P/N: BC-DAD002-LR
Choose left-angle plugs at both ends when this combination matches the available host and device clearances. Allow for housing depth, strain relief, and assembly access, especially where the ports sit behind a removable cover.
P/N: BC-DAD002-LL
Confirm the Cable Exit Against Your Port
The same 90-degree bend can be useful or obstructive depending on which way the device socket faces. These four pictured Micro-B variants offer up, down, left, and right exits with a straight USB-A plug.
Compare the selected plug with a front-on port photo and mark the intended route. Include the housing, strain relief, and nearby connectors in the clearance check. We recommend approving the orientation on a drawing and a sample before committing to a production quantity.
It can redirect the cable along an enclosure instead of straight out from the device. The benefit depends on the available space: check the molded housing and strain relief, not just the metal plug, before choosing an angle.
Use a drawing or photograph with a clearly marked viewing direction and cable exit. Left and right can appear reversed when viewed from opposite sides. A port photo taken in the installed position is more reliable than an angle name alone.
Yes. The RR, RL, LR, and LL versions combine left- or right-angle USB-A and Micro-B plugs. Check each end against its own port orientation and confirm the final combination on the drawing before ordering.
The host or charger, device charging behavior, conductor resistance, and cable length all matter. Specify the required voltage and current so the selected assembly can be reviewed for its load. USB 2.0 data support does not by itself establish a charging-current rating.
No. Shield construction and termination are only part of the complete system. Cable routing, grounding, and nearby noise sources also affect performance. Include any shielding or EMC requirements in the inquiry and evaluate the selected cable in the intended equipment.
No universal compatibility is implied. Confirm a USB 2.0 Micro-B device receptacle, the required data or charging function, and room for the angled housing. Mini-B and the wider USB 3.0 Micro-B plug are different connector designs; this cable does not add USB 3.0 performance.
Send the desired length, tolerance, and quantity together with the selected connector combination. We will review the construction and quotation requirements. Do not assume that a longer custom cable will retain the same electrical performance without assessment.
Check mating fit, cable exit, enclosure clearance, data operation, and device power under the intended load. Record the approved drawing and construction. Sample availability, cost, and timing depend on the configuration and should be confirmed in the quotation.
State the exact documents and acceptance criteria required for your project. Availability must be confirmed for the specified assembly and materials. Connector type or USB 2.0 speed alone does not prove USB-IF certification or system-level regulatory compliance.
Provide the selected variant, length, quantity, required approval steps, and delivery destination. Timing depends on material availability and any custom work. Confirm the schedule against the agreed specification rather than relying on a generic lead-time statement.
No. The angled shape controls routing; it does not add screw retention or prevent disconnection under any load. If your enclosure needs mechanical retention, include that requirement in your inquiry and select a compatible locking arrangement instead of relying on the bend.
Specifying an Angled Micro USB Cable Before the Enclosure Is Finalized
It is easy to choose a connector from a photograph and discover the problem only after the cover goes on. For an angled Micro-B cable, the key question isn’t simply whether the plug fits. It is whether the entire connector, strain relief, and cable route fit the assembled product without pulling sideways on the socket.
Start with the Installed View
Photograph the device port in its working position, not just on a loose circuit board. Mark the intended cable direction, the distance to the nearest wall, and any adjacent sockets that must remain accessible. For a dual-angle assembly, repeat this at the USB-A end. This gives both parties an unambiguous reference for left, right, up, and down.
Measure the Route, Not the Gap
The straight-line distance between two sockets is rarely the required cable length. Include the path around brackets and covers, a gentle bend after the strain relief, and enough service allowance to disconnect the equipment. Avoid excess slack where it could catch on a fan or moving part. State whether the length is measured between connector ends or another pair of reference points.
Check the Loaded Connection
A short desktop test does not represent every installation. Evaluate a sample with the intended host and device, at the selected cable length, while the device is operating under its normal load. Confirm enumeration and the required data function, then, where practical, check the device voltage. If a device resets or disconnects, investigate the source and voltage drop rather than assuming that a different angle will fix the electrical issue.
Set a Clear Sample Approval Basis
- Record the selected part number and connector-direction drawing.
- Confirm mating fit, housing clearance, and access for installation or service.
- Check the required data operation with the actual equipment.
- Agree on conductor construction and the required power load.
- Specify any additional shielding, environmental, or mechanical validation needed for the application.
Do not treat an ordinary molded cable as a continuous-flex robot cable or a qualified medical-system component without the relevant assessment. Tell us about movement, vibration, cleaning, or temperature requirements early so they can be reviewed as design inputs, not assumed from the connector shape.
Send a Drawing-Based Inquiry
For a useful quotation, share the part number or two-end sketch, length and tolerance, order quantity, device power requirement, and any documentation needed for acceptance. A marked-up photo of the port is a good starting point when a full drawing isn’t available yet. Browse the Micro USB cable family if the interface or retention style also needs to change, or send your routing requirement for review.
