What This Latch Does
The TE Connectivity 1717832-2 is a latch accessory designed for use with PCI Express Mini Card connectors. It secures the card in the mated position, providing mechanical retention against vibration and shock in embedded systems, industrial PCs, and telecom modules. The latch is a 52-position compatible part, meaning it fits the standard Mini PCIe form factor.
Packaging and Supply Format
The Tape & Reel option suits automated pick-and-place assembly lines; Cut Tape works for prototype or low-volume builds where a full reel isn't needed.
