as you see it has 2 pins on upper side (excluding shield pins). The link has picture with 3 pins on upper side. So, it's mirrored.
And the one i'm using has 2 shield pins. They are actually not important, but nice to have for better grip.
Unfortunately i didn't find the online offer of this connector yet. If anyone will find, let me know.

There is newer slimmer version of similar jacks are available: USB3150.
I wanted to use this plug but unfortunately digikey has only version with 0.75mm pins which means need to use 0.4mm board. I don't like this idea. Need to find 1.3mm version, then i can make a new bridge board.
P.S.: hmm.. they are very expensive actually.
USB3150 - FU** -even the price is a little bit insane!
Why not use the one I'm using - OK, the row with the 5 pins is a little bit tight to solder, but I'm using normal 1.6mm board - works good - and they are cheap
I need to order it. It's always long time to wait from Aliexpress.
My current bridge board is also 1.6mm.
btw, may be my bridge board still can be used with mirror contacts. Just need to imagine all possible directions

you can open gerber in some viewer and measure. I don't remember exact sizes. The spacing between inner 5 contacts equals to spacing of MicroUSB contacts - they are straight.
After thinking, the connector from THaase link can be used. You need to cut the shield pins (they won't fit). Connector should be soldered from other side of board. 14mm version will work fine. 10mm version will have "tail" on bottom and may protrude down too much in some setups.
Remember in current bridge board pins 4 and 5 are wired together. That's why you need to solder mirrored connector from other side of board.

Well if thats the case i found and already own several micro usb connectors with about 2mm length pins.. hope it works out.. Its the same setup as yours with the pin layout but the ground pins are not long but i am sure the solder will suck them in. They are super cheap on ali express.
It works - got my DB9 - Type 5.09 - only possibility as all Aliexpress sellers send normal types ....
Do not expect the price given - the amount we need is too small (the DB9 have anounced for $0.1-$0.2) - at the end I've paid about $1 per piece - try with direct chatter.
Definetly not at easy as Aliexpress.
@sorgelig: Any change you could again publish the 3d files (step files) for the v1.2 USB board and the mini pcb bridges? That is, if you have them somewhere. I get some requests regarding updates of my case designs and would like to help out.
Also congrats to your pcb base case design. Looks pretty slick! I like the port cut outs - spot on. Maybe I could use it to improve my design also - but that is for another day...

I will upload step files with new USB hub. Regarding USB bridges - they don't affect the case design i think. You just need to provide 2 holes for microUSB. Or common long hole if gap between PCB and case is too big. I don't have 3d model for no-name microUSB male connector.

Great news!
Maybe the case design is affected though as the alignment inside the USB case add-on has to be different. In the current version I did, the USB boards are shifted to one side to bring the USB ports closer to the edge. This would have to be undone for the v1.2 USB boards.
