Amphenol 26-Way 2.54mm Pitch Vertical Box Header Connector

The Amphenol 26-Way 2.54mm Pitch Vertical Box Header is a robust and reliable wire-to-board connector engineered for demanding industrial applications. Its straight through-hole termination ensures a secure and permanent connection to printed circuit boards (PCBs), providing a dependable interface for complex wiring.

Featuring a high-quality phosphor bronze contact with a gold plating, this connector offers excellent conductivity and superior corrosion resistance, which is critical for maintaining signal integrity and long-term performance in harsh environments. The connector body is constructed from a glass-reinforced PBT thermoplastic, providing a UL94V-0 flame-rated insulator that enhances safety and structural durability.

This shrouded header provides physical protection for the pins, aiding correct mating and preventing accidental short circuits. With an impressive insulation resistance of 1000MΩ and a rated voltage of 250V AC/RMS at 60Hz, it is designed to handle substantial electrical loads safely. The compact design, with a 2.54mm pitch and 26 contacts across two rows, makes it an ideal solution for high-density electronic assemblies where space is at a premium.

Key Features at a Glance:
