This single-row, 16-position housing accepts female socket crimp terminals and is designed for free-hanging (in-line) mounting — it mates with the corresponding XH series pin header soldered to a PCB. The 2.50mm pitch is the standard for the JST XH series — it sets the board footprint for the mating header and the wire-to-terminal spacing. The 16-position count matches a 16-circuit harness or a 16-pin header on the PCB; a 12-position sibling (XHP-12) exists at the same pitch for lower circuit-count builds. The crimp termination means the housing accepts loose terminals (sold separately — see the note below) that are crimped onto 20-28 AWG wire, then inserted into the rear of the housing. The free-hanging, in-line mounting style means this receptacle is not panel-mounted; it floats on the wire harness and locks onto the header via the integral XH series latch. ## Contacts Not Included The XHP-16 is a housing only — contacts are not included. The mating female socket terminals must be ordered separately and crimped onto the wire before insertion.","metaTitle":"JST XHP-16 Receptacle Housing, 16 Pos, 2.50mm Pitch","metaDescription":"JST XHP-16 16-position single-row receptacle housing, 2.50mm pitch, natural PA6 nylon.
