Product details

Board-to-Board Fit and Sizing

The surface-mount tails reflow onto the board pads, and the push-pull fastening means the mating header slides in and out without a locking latch — fine for low-vibration environments where the connector won't see shock or cable strain.

Frequently asked questions

What is the replacement for 55508-008?

No official replacement or pin-compatible successor is recorded from Amphenol ICC (FCI). The Minitek 2.00mm series includes other 8-position receptacles, but their footprint, keying, or contact plating may differ. Verify the board layout and mating header before substituting.

What is the mating connector for 55508-008?

This is a board-to-board receptacle — it mates with a matching Minitek 2.00mm header (male pins, same 2.00mm pitch and dual-row spacing). The mating header is not included; confirm the header's part number from your assembly drawing.
