Product details

Right-angle 4-position header for board-edge harness routing

The 1718144004: It is a shrouded 1-wall design, meaning the plastic wall on one side guides the mating receptacle into alignment — useful when the connector is near a board edge or inside a tight enclosure where visual alignment is limited. The right-angle through-hole termination keeps the mated cable parallel to the PCB, saving vertical space in enclosures. The friction lock provides a positive hold against vibration without requiring a secondary latch or screw.
