The JST XMAP-04V-R(M8AM) is a 4-position plug housing from the XMA series, designed as the female half of a wire-to-board interconnect. It uses 2.50mm pitch spacing, a single row layout, and a latch lock for positive retention against vibration. The red PBT housing is free-hanging (in-line) and accepts crimp-terminated female socket contacts — which are not included and must be ordered separately. Typical applications include internal appliance wiring, automotive cabin harnesses, and industrial control panels where a compact, polarized wire-to-board connection is needed.
Mating and termination checklist
This plug mates with the JST XMA series 2.50mm pitch header (male pin, through-hole or SMT). The latch lock snaps over the header's locking ramp for a vibration-resistant mate. Termination is crimp-style: strip the wire, crimp the female socket terminal, insert into the housing cavity until the lance locks. The red housing colour aids visual identification on the harness. Operating temperature range is -25°C to 85°C, suited for indoor and automotive cabin environments.
