Firewire (IEEE 1394) Receptacle — Vertical Through-Hole
The TE Connectivity 5787956-1 is a 6-contact Firewire (IEEE 1394) receptacle in a vertical through-hole package. It carries a 1.5A per-contact rating at 40VAC, with contact finish of gold or gold-palladium. Rated for 1500 mating cycles, it suits equipment that sees repeated connect-disconnect duty — front-panel ports, test fixtures, or field-serviceable gear.
Vertical orientation means the receptacle stands perpendicular to the PCB, mating from above. The board lock adds retention during wave solder and resists the push-out force from the mating plug.
