14-Position, 2.54 mm Pitch — Standard Footprint for Signal Interconnects
The 93696-407LF: With 14 positions across 2 rows, this receptacle fits common I/O and signal routing needs in industrial control, telecom backplanes, and automotive modules.
Tin-Plated Contacts — Cost-Effective for Moderate Mating Duty
The post (solder tail) also carries 78.7 µin tin plating, ensuring a consistent solder joint with standard lead-free or SnPb reflow profiles. The phosphor bronze contact base provides good spring retention without the cost of beryllium copper.
Through-Hole, Bottom or Top Entry — Flexible Board Stacking
This receptacle is specified as bottom or top entry, meaning the same part can be loaded from either side of the PCB during assembly. In a bottom-entry configuration, the connector body sits on the solder side and the tails go through to the component side — useful for mezzanine stacking where the receptacle must face downward. Top-entry is the conventional orientation with the body on the component side.
Active Production — No Obsolescence Risk for New Designs
The base product number 93696 covers the full Dubox™ family of 2.54 mm pitch receptacles; the -407LF suffix specifies the 14-position, tin-plated variant in tube packaging. For a different plating or position count, the base number can be used to search the series.
