The TE Connectivity 5650473-5 is a 96-position DIN 41612 style C plug connector from the Eurocard series. This is the male, or plug, half of the DIN pair, designed to mate with a style C receptacle (the female half) on a backplane or midplane. Gold contact finish suits repeated mating cycles in rack-mounted equipment where boards are swapped during service.
Key Specs for Board Layout
All 96 positions are loaded, so the footprint is full-density; no unpopulated positions to save board space.
This plug mates with any DIN 41612 style C receptacle (female) connector — typically the TE 5650469 series or equivalent. The solder termination is through-hole: the pins pass through the PCB and are wave-soldered. No crimp, no press-fit — standard soldering process for prototype or medium-volume builds.
