26-Position AMP-Latch Header for Ribbon-Cable Interconnects
The 2-5499206-6: The shrouded 4-wall housing with a keying slot and mounting flange ensures correct orientation and mechanical stability on the PCB. The latch lock/eject hooks provide positive retention during vibration and allow tool-less unmating, which is useful in harness assembly and field-service scenarios where the connector is cycled regularly. The mating contact finish is gold or gold-palladium at 30.0 µinch (0.76 µm), supporting repeated mating cycles in environments where corrosion resistance matters, such as industrial control cabinets or test equipment.
Current and Voltage Limits for Signal Duty
Rated at 1 A per contact and 250 VAC, this header is suited for signal-level interconnects rather than power delivery.
