Board-to-wire header for 2.5mm pitch harnesses
The 2132230-8 is an 8-position, single-row header from TE's Economy Power 2.5 series, designed for board-to-cable/wire applications with a 2.50mm pitch. It is a shrouded - 4 wall header, meaning the plastic shroud surrounds the male pins on all four sides, guiding the mating connector and protecting the contacts from damage during blind mating.
Pitch, shrouding, and current rating
The 2.50mm pitch matches the Economy Power 2.5 receptacle family, so the footprint on the PCB is fixed: 8 through-hole positions on 0.098" centers. The 4-wall shrouding is a step up from unshrouded headers — it prevents bent pins during cable assembly and ensures the mating plug aligns correctly every time.
