Amphenol Communications Solutions AMPMODU Series PCB Header, 16 Contacts, 2.54 mm Pitch, Straight, Shrouded, Through HE14

TE Connectivity 281739-8 AMPMODU HE14 Series PCB Header is engineered to offer dependable wire-to-board interconnections for a broad range of electronic applications. Featuring a double row, 16-contact configuration, this header is designed for use with discrete wires or 2.54 mm ribbon cables, providing standard compatibility for complex assemblies and designs.

The product features a robust straight-through hole mounting orientation, which facilitates secure board integration and simplifies manufacturing processes. The shrouded design not only protects the pins but also includes integrated polarization effects, ensuring that connectors cannot be mismated and further enhancing reliability. An integrated friction lock supports a strong, secure connection, making the header suitable for environments where vibration or movement may be encountered.

The blue UL 94V-0 rated thermoplastic housing offers excellent resistance to high temperatures and meets stringent safety requirements. Contacts are made from phosphor bronze and plated with tin for optimal electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. This combination of materials ensures lasting performance, even in demanding industrial, automotive or medical scenarios.

Typical uses for AMPMODU HE14 headers include test equipment, medical instrumentation, computer systems, telecommunication boards, storage devices, and factories with automation and control requirements. The 2.9 mm tail pin length, along with a 2.54 mm pitch and double row arrangement, supports efficient soldering and optimal electrical contact on PCBs.

The AMPMODU HE14 system is recognized for its versatility, reliability, and economy, and is frequently selected as a signal standard in automation and control applications. For added safety and ease of use, the housing is polarized and shrouded to prevent accidental pin damage and improper mating. These headers mate with AMPMODU HE14 IDC receptacles for flexible wire terminations.

Applications include automotive control modules, industrial and laboratory devices, medical hardware, storage equipment, household appliances, and communication infrastructure. The header’s robust construction and technical design enable seamless integration into complex assemblies.
