Typical use is in internal board-to-cable interconnects where a parallel ribbon cable transitions to a DIP footprint — common in legacy I/O, prototyping, and control card wiring. The cable pitch of 0.050\" (1.27 mm) is the primary compatibility check — your ribbon cable must match this spacing for the IDC contacts to align. The connector accepts 26-28 AWG stranded or solid wire; using wire outside this range risks an unreliable IDC gas-tight joint. The feed-through feature lets the ribbon cable pass through the header to daisy-chain to another connector, which simplifies multi-drop harness layouts without a separate splice. For high-cycle or corrosive-duty applications, a gold-plated variant would be specified. The IDC termination mass-terminates all six conductors in one press operation, eliminating individual crimping and reducing assembly time on the harness build. The closest functional sibling in the same Series 622 is the 1-216791-6, a 16-position DIP header with the same 0.050\" cable pitch and 0.100\" board pitch. The key difference is position count — 6 vs 16 — which changes the PCB footprint length. Both are active, RoHS compliant, and use IDC termination. Choose the 6-position for low-channel-count signal runs; step up to the 16-position when your BOM calls for more I/O on the same pitch.","metaTitle":"TE 1658525-4 DIP IDC Header, 6 Pos, 0.050\" Pitch, Blue","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity 1658525-4 DIP header, 6 positions, IDC termination for 26-28 AWG ribbon cable. 0.050\" cable pitch, 0.100\" board pitch, tin contacts.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"622","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"RoHS Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Wire-to-Board Connectors","Direct Wire-to-Board"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Color":"Blue","Series":"622","Package":"Bulk","Features":"Feed Through","Wire Gauge":"26-28 AWG, Stranded or Solid","Cable Pitch":"0.050\\\" (1.27mm)","Row Spacing":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Connector Type":"Ribbon Cable, DIP Header","Contact Finish":"Tin","Number of Rows":"2","Product Status":"Active","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Board-Side Pitch":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Cable Termination":"IDC","Base Product Number":"1658525","Number of Positions":"6","Contact Finish Thickness":"100.0µin (2.54µm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"All"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$4.0500","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$4.05000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$3.60900","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$3.59080","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$3.55400","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$3.20420","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$3.18580","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$2.94638","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$2.63333","currency":"USD"},{"qty":2500,"price":"$2.43077","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/3e3d36629729b5018b3f0cad9121d63c.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What ribbon cable pitch does the 1658525-4 require?","answer":"The 1658525-4 requires a ribbon cable with 0.050\" (1.27 mm) pitch.
