The TE Connectivity 1971567-3 is a 6-position hermaphroditic blade-and-receptacle connector built for board-to-board stacking at a 0.118" (3.00mm) pitch. Hermaphroditic means the same connector body serves as both plug and receptacle — you mate two identical parts, which cuts the unique line items in your BOM by half and simplifies field spares.
Right-Angle SMT Edge-Mount — Board Layout Fit
This connector mounts at the board edge, surface-mount, right-angle orientation. For the footprint, the 0.118" (3.00mm) pitch sets the pad spacing — verify the keep-out zone against the mating half's envelope before committing the layout.
6 Circuits at 3 A — Signal-Duty Current Budget
Six positions, each rated 3 A. The per-circuit rating is the practical limit.
