It uses a 2.50mm pitch and mounts through-hole at a right angle, routing the mating cable parallel to the PCB — a common choice for compact enclosures where vertical clearance is tight. ## Board fit and mating compatibility This header mates with JST XH series crimp receptacles (e.g., XHP-series housings with SXH-001T-P0.6 terminals). The 0.134\" (3.40mm) post length suits standard 1.6mm PCBs; the right-angle orientation requires a board edge clearance of at least the insulation height of 0.240\" (6.10mm).","metaTitle":"S12B-XH-A JST XH Series 12-Pin Right-Angle Header","metaDescription":"JST XH series 12-position through-hole right-angle header, 2.50mm pitch, shrouded with detent lock.
