Product details

Board-to-Board Fit and Contact Duty

That covers automotive underhood, industrial cabinet, and outdoor telecom enclosures without derating.

Voltage Headroom and Termination

Rated 1000 V — this gives the 68685-308 headroom for power distribution alongside signal lines on the same board. The through-hole solder tails are tin-plated to 100 µinch, compatible with wave-solder processes. In high-vibration environments, a secondary retention feature on the mating header or a board lock is worth confirming.

The Dubox™ single-row receptacle family includes 2-position (68685-302LF) and 6-position (68685-306LF) variants with identical pitch, plating, and voltage rating.
