Board layout and footprint details
The contact length on the mating side is 0.240" (6.10mm), and the post length is 0.155" (3.94mm) — these dimensions set the board thickness and solder tail clearance for the through-hole mounting. The insulation height of 0.315" (8.00mm) plus the right-angle body gives a low profile above the board, which matters when the header sits near other components or a panel wall.
Mating and termination compatibility
This header mates with AMP-Latch IDC socket connectors — the shrouded 4-wall design and keying slot ensure correct orientation before the latch engages. The latch lock/eject hooks are the short version, so the mating cable connector must have the corresponding ejector latch profile.
