The Install Bay IBR116 USB 3.0 Charge and Data Flush Mount car electronics accessory

SKU CH-9CSC-W3194

A flush-mount USB-A 3.0 port adds charging and data to a 26 mm hole and includes a water-resistant cover

  • Product typeCar Stereo Add-Ons
  • USB 3.0 charge and data in one port
  • 26 mm flush mount for a clean dashboard look
  • Surface mount option adds installation flexibility
  • Water-resistant cover protects the port from splashes
  • 3 ft cable reaches from console to mount point

Single USB-A 3.0 port for vehicle integration

This accessory adds a single USB-A 3.0 connection for charging and data transfer in a car. It is designed for drivers who want a permanent, factory-look interface at the dashboard. The unit suits installations where only one USB port is required. It is not for buyers who want multiple ports or a different connector type.

Sustained data and power delivery through 1 m cable

The 1 m (3 ft) lead connects the port to the source device, maintaining the USB 3.0 signal over the full length. Performance under continuous use depends on the host controller and cable quality, not on the mount itself. The flush-mount body simply passes through the signals and power supplied by the vehicle harness. It is not for installers who need active signal boosting or longer runs without a repeater.

USB 3.0 practical limits in a 26 mm flush mount

The 26 mm cut-out accepts the port housing, while the included surface-mount adapter and water-resistant cover offer alternative fitting options. USB 3.0 bandwidth and current are constrained by the host and cable, not by the mounting hardware. The accessory adds no protocol conversion or power negotiation. It is not for applications that require a sealed bulkhead connector rated beyond the supplied cover.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the USB 3.0 port generate during continuous charging?

The USB 3.0 interface is designed for standard charge and data rates and does not produce noticeable heat during normal all-day use.

What dashboard cut-out and wiring does the 26 mm flush mount need?

A 26 mm diameter hole is required for the flush mount; the 1 m cable terminates in a USB-A plug that connects to the head unit or hub for data and power.

Will the IBR116 work with an older stereo that only has USB 2.0 ports?

Yes, the USB 3.0 port is backward compatible and will charge and transfer data at USB 2.0 speeds when connected to a legacy head unit.
