M80-7711242

Overview

The M80-7711242 is a Datamate J-Tek header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a vertical male pin configuration with a 6+6 position layout in two rows. The component utilizes a 2.00mm pitch and employs push-turn locking for secure attachment. Designed for through-hole solder termination, it supports board-to-board or cable applications. The housing is constructed from black Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) reinforced with glass fiber, ensuring UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. Operating temperatures range from -55°C to +121°C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes high-reliability four-finger beryllium copper contact technology to ensure connection integrity without signal loss.
• Features a horizontal lock latch mechanism combined with a 4.5mm tail design for robust mechanical stability.
• Incorporates a push-turn locking system that provides secure mating and prevents accidental disengagement.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring reliable signal transmission
• Automotive electronic modules needing vibration-resistant connections
• Test and measurement equipment interfaces

Procurement Notes
