The shrouded 4-wall housing and detent lock keep the mating half aligned and latched, which matters when the cable gets tugged in a panel or enclosure. The right-angle SMT orientation means the header sits parallel to the board surface, and the cable exits along the board plane — a common layout for tight z-height budgets. Solder retention pads on the SMT feet help hold the part in place during reflow and resist shear forces from the mated cable assembly. ## Mating Housing and Current Rating Reality This header mates with TE CT series crimp receptacle housings. The 2.00mm pitch receptacle housings are keyed and use standard CT crimp terminals — confirm the circuit count and keying match your harness side. Current rating is listed as varies by wire gauge — the limiting factor is the crimp terminal and wire size, not the header pin itself. For a given wire gauge, the CT series terminal datasheet gives the derated current. Voltage rating is 125 VAC, and the housing material is rated UL94 V-0 for flame resistance.","metaTitle":"3-292173-2 TE Connectivity CT Header SMD R/A 2POS 2MM","metaDescription":"2.00mm pitch, 2-position, shrouded 4-wall header, SMT right-angle, detent lock, solder retention, UL94 V-0.
