The 22-02-2205: This is a top-entry female socket header from the Molex KK 254 family — the contacts insert from above the board, so the mated connector sits flush against the PCB surface rather than standing off at an angle. That matters when the z-height above the board is tight, or when the mating plug needs to be pressed straight down without a lever arm.
