Standard Unshrouded Header Plug
XG8
Standard Plugs can be used in a wide
range of applications.
• The XG8 2 row plugs mates with different Omron 2 row Sockets:
XG4M Flat Cable Connector, XG4H Board to Board Connector
and XG5 Discrete-wire IDC Connector
• XG8A and XG8B Header / Plugs are sold in strips of 50
(single row) or 100 (double row) terminals. Simply cut the
strips to the desired length / number of contacts.
• XG5Z-0002 Top Lock Levers (sold separately) ensure secure
connection to Omron Sockets when used with double row,
right-angle XG8W
