JST 11KR-6H-P — 11-Position IDC Socket for Discrete Wire Harnesses
The JST 11KR-6H-P is an 11-circuit female socket from the KR series, terminated via IDC to 26 AWG discrete wire. The 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch keeps the wire-to-board interface compact — each position occupies 2.00 mm of board edge, so an 11-wide header footprint fits within 22 mm plus the end walls. Tin-plated female contacts are standard for this series, which means the connector is built for moderate mating-cycle duty in cost-sensitive harness assemblies rather than high-reconnect field-service applications. The gray housing is keyed to the matching KR header, preventing reverse insertion on the line.
Position Count — 11 vs 12 vs 10
The KR series offers this 11-position socket alongside 10-position (10KR-6H-P) and 12-position (12KR-6H-P) variants at the same 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, same 26 AWG IDC termination, same tin finish, and same gray housing. The only decision-relevant difference is the circuit count: 11 positions match an 11-circuit BOM line. If the design calls for 12 circuits, the 12KR-6H-P is the direct sibling; there is no functional or footprint difference beyond the position count.
