Board-to-wire header for harness integration
The 3-644893-6 is a 6-position, single-row, shrouded header from TE's CST-100 series, designed for board-to-cable/wire applications. The header mates with matching CST-100 receptacle housings, providing a friction lock that holds the pair together under moderate vibration — a practical choice for lighting and general-purpose equipment where the cable assembly won't see constant flexing.
Position count and footprint fit
This 6-position header is the highest circuit count in the single-row CST-100 vertical family among the active peer group — compare with the 4-position 3-644893-4 and the 3-position 3-644893-3.
Compliance and sourcing posture
Sourced to order against BOM quantities; confirm the mating half and wire gauge for current derating before committing the line.
