Headers & Wire Housings

Headers are electrical connectors that have one or more rows of pins and are sometimes called pin header connectors. Commonly used on printed circuit boards to help forge connections, headers come in male (pin) and female (socket) forms.

Connector housings are essential components that electrically isolate individual contacts from one another and enable the mating of connectors for seamless functioning. In addition, these housings offer mechanical protection for contacts from harsh environments.

Headers and wire housings are employed for networking, industrial control, RFID and general-purpose applications. Browse our portfolio from manufacturers Digi International and Lantronix.
