2.00 mm pitch, 6-position shrouded header with detent lock
The 292251-6 is a vertical through-hole header from TE's CT series, offering 6 positions on a 2.00 mm pitch. The 4-wall shrouding and detent lock keep the mating connector aligned and latched under vibration — a step above an unshrouded pin strip for wire-to-board applications where the cable gets tugged. Current rating depends on the wire gauge used in the mating half — the header itself is the signal side of the connection.
Board fit and mounting details
Insulation height stands 0.268" (6.80 mm) above the board. A built-in board guide on the housing helps align the header during placement, useful for automated assembly where the pick-and-place head needs a mechanical reference.
