The 2-1734839-2: This is a 22-position, 0.50 mm pitch FPC connector from TE Connectivity's 1734839 series, designed for top-contact FPC cable termination. The right-angle SMT orientation and 2.05 mm height above board suit it for tight board-edge routing where the cable folds parallel to the PCB.
Slide Lock and ZIF Actuation
The slide lock mechanism provides zero insertion force (ZIF) actuation — the FPC slides in freely, then the lock slides over to clamp the contacts. This avoids the wear and alignment issues of a non-ZIF connector when the FPC is inserted repeatedly.
It is RoHS compliant. Tape & Reel or Cut Tape packaging options cover both high-volume reflow and prototype runs.
