I\'m looking for a USB C (male) connector that can mount
\"standing up\", normal to the PCB -- and have a total height
effectively the same as the insertion length of a normal
connector. SMT or thru-hole.

\"male\" so you want what the USB spec calls a receptacle?

No. The mate to this:

I.e., cut the end off your (typical) cable and mount THAT to a PCB.

Are they too tall?

Yeah, I think so. ISTM that you only need about ~6mm penetration into the
mating connector so anything beyond that is just \"bragging rights\" :

a regular usb-c cable has ~7mm and those pcb mount ones will in most cases
have to go through a hole in an enclosure, so the ~10mm makes sense

From the plane of the PCB, they are closer to 12mm. The receptacles
only need < 5mm penetration for the connection so there\'s a 7mm gap
between where the top \"surface\" (edge) of the receptacle lies and
the plane of the PCB. I can\'t afford that gap (regardless of whether
or not other applications can -- or NEED it!)

One problm with C connectors is that they are small and can be ripped
off PCBs by forces applied to cables. They need mechanical help.
We prefer to use the big old square printer-type B\'s when we can. They
are pretty much indestructable.
Some of the parallel-to-the-board C types have large solder connection
areas, which can be soldered to big copper pours with lots of vias.
