The TE Connectivity 1-1735413-1 is a 13-position SATA receptacle in a right-angle surface-mount package. It's the board-side half of a standard SATA interconnect, used to route data and power between a drive and the host PCB in storage arrays, desktop drives, and embedded systems. The 13 positions match the standard SATA signal/power interface — seven signal contacts and six power contacts in the unified SATA connector format. Board guide and mating guide features are built into the housing — the board guide aligns the part during pick-and-place, and the mating guide steers the plug into position so the contacts don't shear on a blind mate. That matters on a production line where cycle time and rework cost add up fast.
This receptacle mates with a standard SATA plug — the 7+6 contact arrangement is defined by the SATA-IO specification, so any compliant SATA cable assembly or drive connector will fit. Termination is solder-only: the right-angle SMT tails reflow onto the board pads. No press-fit or IDC option here — plan for a standard reflow profile with the solder paste volume tuned for the SMT pads.
