Reliable industrial grade component
TE Connectivity never disappoints. The gold plating ensures good contact even in humid environments. Arrived quickly and packaging prevented pin damage.

Good quality, slightly tight fit
The build quality is excellent. It was a bit tight fitting onto the header pins initially, but after a few connect/disconnect cycles it smoothed out. Reliable for long-term use.

Perfect fit for legacy board repair
Needed this specific TE connector to restore an old audio interface board. The pin alignment was perfect and the solder joints took well. Genuine part as described.

Solid connector for PCB projects
Used this for a custom media stand controller board. The through-hole mounting is very secure. Only giving 4 stars because the price fluctuates often.

Exact replacement needed
Hard to find 50-position receptacles with this specific pitch. This worked exactly as intended for my custom MP3 player stand project. No issues with conductivity.
Q: Does this come with the housing or just the contacts?
A: This part number (2-5175887-7) refers to the complete receptacle housing with contacts pre-installed. You do not need to buy separate contacts.
Q: Is this connector compatible with standard 0.1 inch pitch headers?
A: Yes, this connector has a 2.54 mm pitch, which is equivalent to the standard 0.1 inch spacing used in most PCB headers.
Q: Is there a mating lock mechanism included?
A: This specific series relies on friction fit for retention. If you require a locking mechanism for vibration-heavy environments, you may need to look at the locked variants in the same family.
Q: Can I use this for high-frequency audio signals?
A: Yes, the gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts provide low resistance and good signal integrity suitable for audio applications within standard frequency ranges.
Q: What is the maximum voltage rating for this connector?
A: While primarily rated for current, these connectors are typically rated for up to 250V AC/DC in standard signal and power applications. Please consult the official datasheet for your specific safety margins.
