50-Position Right-Angle Receptacle for Dense Board-to-Board Links
The TE Connectivity CHAMP.050 I 1734037-5 is a 50-position board-to-board receptacle designed for high-density parallel-board interconnects.
What the Outer Shroud Contacts Mean for Alignment
The connector style is listed as outer shroud contacts — a design where the receptacle's outer shell surrounds the mating header's pins, guiding alignment before the contacts touch. This protects the fine-pitch 0.050-inch contacts from stubbing or bending during blind mating, which is common in board-to-board stacking where you cannot see the interface. The shroud also provides some EMI containment by enclosing the signal path within a grounded shell.
