TE Connectivity AMP-LATCH Series PCB Header, Straight, Through Hole, 14 Contacts, 2.54 mm Pitch, 2 Rows 2-5499206-2

The TE Connectivity AMP-LATCH Series 2-5499206-2 is a high-quality, straight through hole PCB header designed for robust interconnections in electronic assemblies. This shrouded header features 14 male contacts, arranged in two rows with a standard 2.54 mm pitch, providing reliable and consistent electrical connections for IDC ribbon cable assemblies and other wire-to-board requirements.

The AMP-LATCH universal ejection style construction allows for effortless insertion and secure mating, particularly useful in environments where connections are made and broken frequently. With ejection latches, the connector is easy to disconnect without exerting excessive force, while its dual polarization ensures correct orientation during the assembly process. The housing is constructed from durable nylon, further enhancing insulation and mechanical stability in challenging environments across industrial and commercial settings.

This connector is capable of carrying up to 1A current and is rated for operation at voltages up to 250V, meeting typical electronic application demands. Its gold-plated brass contacts ensure excellent conductivity and long-term corrosion resistance, while solder pin termination delivers secure PCB mounting. The connector's shrouded design minimizes risk of mis-mating and provides added protection for both the header and mating cable receptacle.

Operating efficiently across a wide temperature range from -65°C to 105°C, the TE Connectivity AMP-LATCH header meets the needs of high-reliability installations. Its male contacts, through hole format, and straight orientation make it suitable for PCBs in industrial controls, computing, networking, storage devices, medical instruments, and more.

Applications for the 2-5499206-2 include business and medical equipment, industrial automation, storage and networking systems, and test instruments. This connector is engineered to deliver reliable performance for both new equipment and upgrades to legacy systems.
