5-position, 5.08 mm pitch — the BOM-fit anchor
The 796634-5 is a 5-position plug from TE's Buchanan series, pitched at 0.200" (5.08 mm). The 5 circuits match the common 5-way block count for power distribution or signal breakout. For a 5-circuit block at full load, the aggregate power dissipation stays within the UL 1977 thermal limit for the material. Free-hanging (in-line) mount means the plug inserts into a mating header on the board or panel, with no additional bracket. The retention latches (non-wire side) lock the plug into the header — they resist vibration and accidental pull-out without tools.
The base product number is 796634; the -5 suffix denotes the 5-position variant. Peer alternatives in the same Buchanan series include 1-2213934-1, 1-2305909-1, and 1-2213935-1 — all active, same package, but different position counts or keying. Confirm the BOM position count before substituting.
