Its low height of just 4.4 mm above the printed circuit board is achieved through two clever design tricks: First, the jack housing is partially open towards the top. Second, its underside can be mounted in a way that is partially counter-sunk into the board by 0.9 mm. The jack’s underside, which is designed for in-board mounting, has a cross shape. As a result, after mounting, it is able to withstand the strongest removal forces in all horizontal directions. The number of guaranteed mating cycles is specified at 5,000, the contact resistance at 20 mΩ (initial) and the insulation resistance at 100 MΩ (initial). A capton film on the top of the jack ensures trouble-free automatic pick & place assembly using a vacuum-assited pipette.
