What This 2-Position Poke-In Receptacle Does on a Board
It's a board-to-cable/wire interconnect on a 4.00 mm pitch, rated 5 A or 6 A per contact depending on derating conditions, with a 400 V voltage rating. The right-angle SMT mounting puts the wire entry parallel to the board, which saves height in a shallow enclosure.
Poke-In Termination — No Crimp Tool, Just Strip and Push
This receptacle accepts 18 AWG, 20 AWG, or 22 AWG wire. The poke-in design means you strip the wire to the correct length and push it into the contact cavity — the internal beam grabs the conductor and holds it. No crimp tool, no terminal inventory. That's useful on a repair truck or in a low-volume build where you don't want to stock loose contacts. The retention is mechanical, so make sure the wire is fully seated; a tug test confirms it's locked.
