What this 50-position SMT header is built for
The 104693-5 is a 50-position, dual-row surface-mount header from the AMPMODU 50/50 Grid series, designed for board-to-board stacking at a mated height of 9.91 mm. A board lock on the SMT package holds the header in place through reflow and resists shear forces from the mating cable assembly — useful in applications where the board sees vibration after assembly.
Footprint and routing constraints
At 50 positions across two rows spaced 0.050" apart, the header occupies a 1.27 mm × 1.27 mm grid.
Termination is solder to surface-mount pads. The board lock provides mechanical retention during reflow — no secondary adhesive or through-hole anchor needed. Mates with a matching AMPMODU 50/50 Grid receptacle (not included) at a stacking height of 9.91 mm.
