13-Position SATA Receptacle for Board-Mount Storage Interconnects
The TE Connectivity 1735539-2 is a 13-position SATA receptacle designed for surface-mount attachment to a PCB.
SMT Termination and Board Assembly Fit
This receptacle terminates via solder to a surface-mount pad layout. The solder retention features keep the connector stable during the reflow process, reducing tombstoning or shift. The mating guide helps align the plug during insertion, which matters when the connector is at the edge of a drive carrier or backplane where visual alignment is limited.
Gold Contact Finish and Signal Reliability
Gold prevents oxide build-up on the contact interface, which keeps contact resistance low across the signal pairs. The 13-position layout follows the SATA standard pinout: seven signal contacts (three differential pairs plus ground) and six power contacts.
The 1735539-2 is listed with an active product status.
