The 640389-4: Four positions loaded all means the header delivers a full set of signal or power circuits in a single-row layout, keeping the board edge narrow for tight enclosures.
The mating half is an MTA-156 receptacle housing (crimp or IDC type) with a friction-lock latch that engages the header's locking ramp.
The UL94 V-0 housing material supports the upper end without flame risk.
