Right-angle mounting for board-edge routing
The 280615-2 is a 2-position, single-row header from the AMPMODU Mod I series, with a 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch. It mounts through-hole, right-angle, so the pins sit parallel to the board surface — a good fit for low-profile edge connections or where the mating cable enters from the side. The housing is shrouded on two walls, which gives some keying protection against misalignment during mating. The detent lock adds a positive hold so the connector pair stays mated under light vibration.
Gold mating finish for moderate cycle life
Compare this to the 1-292164-1, which is also a single-row right-angle header but with a 2.00mm pitch and tin-on-tin contacts — the 280615-2's wider pitch and gold mating finish give it an edge for higher-current or more demanding mating-cycle applications.
