Mechanical Retention: Board Lock and Locking Ramp
The 1-794107-0: In a vibration environment — think industrial cabinet with fans or a mobile equipment panel — the ramp keeps the pair mated without relying on friction alone.
The brass contact material provides good conductivity and formability for the crimp termination, and the circular contact shape is standard for the Mini-Universal MATE-N-LOK receptacle terminals.
Environmental and Compliance Profile
The 1-794107-0 provides two more positions (22 vs 20) and a higher voltage rating (600VAC vs 250VAC), but the ATX part carries a higher per-contact current (9 A vs varies by wire gauge). Both are active, shrouded, dual-row headers with locking ramps and tin plating. For a 20-position design with higher current per circuit, the 4-1775099-7 is worth evaluating as an AVL alternate.
