8-Position Dual-Row Housing for 2.00mm Pitch Harnesses
The Hirose A3B-8D-2C is an 8-position, dual-row receptacle housing from the A3 series, designed for free-hanging in-line wire-to-board or wire-to-wire connections on a 2.00mm pitch grid. It accepts female socket contacts (ordered separately) terminated via crimp, making it a field-serviceable building block for harness assemblies that need a compact, polarized interconnect.
Position Count and Pitch — What Matches
With 8 positions across 2 rows at a 2.00mm pitch, this housing pairs with the matching A3 series pin header that has the same circuit count and row spacing. Against the 12-position A3B-12D-2C, the only difference is circuit count; the pitch, row count, and mounting style are identical, so the footprint scales linearly with position count.
