The plugs are available as straight or right angle version with upright or downward cable direction, allowing flexible connectivity solutions&lt;br /&gt;in combination with the right angle receptacle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;Multiple connectors can be mounted side-by-side with only a small pitch distance of 10mm. This is due to the small footprint and narrow width of the receptacle allowing&lt;br /&gt;space to be saved on the board.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;Secure locking is assured by a robust snap-in lock which gives a clear tactile click when mated. This confirms the connector is fully engaged. In addition, the positive lock features a highly reliable preload mechanism with a long spring length which increases the durability of the connector to 5000 mating cycles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;The receptacle is suitable for through-hole reflow solder processing. In addition to the surface mount contacts the receptacle features through-hole solder posts to aid the retention of the connector to the board and protect the surface&lt;br /&gt;mount contacts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;The connector features an enhanced structural grounding shield to prevent &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#222222;font-size:11pt;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;"&gt;electromagnetic&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#222222;font-size:11pt;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;"&gt; interference (EMI) and electrostatic discharge (ESD).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-size:12pt;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key Features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul style="list-style-type:disc;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;Number of contacts: 8&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;Current rating: 0.5A (all pins), 1A (any 2 pins), 2A (pin No.1 and No.8 only)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;Voltage rating: 30V&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;Mating cycles: 5000&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;RoHS compliant&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;text-indent:-1cm;margin-left:1cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt;Suitable&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:windowtext;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial&amp;#39;,&amp;#39;sans-serif&amp;#39;;font-size:11pt;"&gt; applications are FA controllers, servo amplifiers, robots, servers and PLC’s. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
