3M 158 Ribbon Cable Sockets & 159 Shrouded Headers
3M's 2mm 158 Ribbon Cable Sockets and 159 Shrouded Boardmount Headers provide a robust and compact cable-to-board connection solution. The 159 Series Shrouded Boardmount Headers maximize design flexibility while minimizing the PCB footprint, and mate to the 158 Series Ribbon Cable Sockets. The 158 Series Ribbon Cable Sockets provide a reliable ribbon cable to board interface in a variety of applications, terminate to 1mm pitch ribbon cable. 3M offers each series in multiple configurations. Configurations include an adhesive-backed cover for robust termination, "sword pack" to deliver higher speed termination operations, and friction-latch configurations for increased protection against accidental disconnect. 3M's 2mm 158 Series and 159 Series are well-suited for industrial production equipment, communications, military/aerospace, and computer/datacom applications.
IMPORTANT NOTE: 3M cannot guarantee reliable electrical performance when connected to competitive products. Claims of "mating" refer to physical fit only. Customers should evaluate electrical performance of mated pairs from dissimilar manufacturers to determine suitability of use in their application.
