The 6 A Rating — What It Buys the Design
The limiting factor is not the contact itself but the pin density across the board edge.
The right-angle orientation places the solder tails perpendicular to the PCB, suiting board-edge or space-constrained enclosures where a straight plug would protrude too far. Solder termination is manual or wave-solder; no press-fit or IDC tooling required.
