The free-hanging (in-line) mount suits harness assemblies where the connector floats off the board, common in internal power and signal distribution inside industrial controls, automotive dash harnesses, and consumer appliance wiring.
Critical Procurement Detail: Contacts Not Included
The housing ships without crimp contacts — the note on this line is explicit. ROHS3 compliance is on record, so no restriction for EU-market builds.
This receptacle mates with any C-Grid III 0.100" pitch pin header — through-hole or surface-mount, straight or right-angle, in a matching 12-circuit dual-row configuration. The crimp termination allows field-serviceable wire replacement; the free-hanging design means no board footprint is consumed at the connector end.
