It uses a 0.80mm pitch, right-angle SMT termination, and gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts rated at 500mA per circuit with a 125VAC voltage rating — a signal-level interconnect suited for internal harnesses in general-purpose electronics where space on the board edge is tight. The 0.80mm pitch keeps the footprint compact, but the 500mA per-contact rating means this is strictly a signal path — not a power rail. The gold-on-gold plating (8.00µin mating, 1.25µin post) gives a stable contact interface for repeated mating cycles within the signal domain.
Within the 3200 series, the 3260-8S3(55) shares the same 0.80mm pitch, gold plating, and 500mA/125VAC rating as the 3260-8S1(55) and 3260-8S2(55) — all 8-position, right-angle SMT receptacles. The distinguishing feature here is the shielded board guide, which adds EMI containment and mechanical alignment during assembly. The 3260-10S3(55) is the 10-position sibling if the BOM calls for two more circuits at the same pitch.
The board guide helps register the connector during pick-and-place and protects the SMT solder joints from shear forces during cable strain.
