It uses a press-fit termination into a through-hole PCB, which means no solder is needed — the compliant pin compresses into the plated hole for a gas-tight joint that's field-reworkable. The housing is gray, rated UL94 V-0, and carries 7 power contacts loaded in a single row, all rated at 250V.
Press-Fit Termination — No Solder, Rework-Friendly
The press-fit termination is the key feature here. Instead of soldering, the compliant pin deforms elastically inside the PCB plated through-hole, creating a reliable connection without the thermal stress of reflow or wave solder. This is standard for high-reliability backplane assemblies where rework or field replacement of individual connectors is expected. The through-hole mounting keeps the connector anchored against the insertion force of the mating blade header.
Mating and Compatibility
The 7-position single-row layout with blade-style sockets is keyed by the housing geometry — verify the mating half's position count and keying before committing the BOM line.
