What are the key features of TSM-135-04-S-SH-A?
- 35-position single-row horizontal layout at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch with taller SH-A shroud for enhanced mating guidance and contact protection
- Shrouded SMT design enforces polarized mating orientation, reducing field wiring errors in multi-connector panel assemblies
- Surface-mount technology footprint compatible with standard automated reflow soldering at peak temperatures up to 260°C
What is TSM-135-04-S-SH-A used for?
The TSM-135-04-S-SH-A is suited for embedded system backplanes, industrial controller I/O panels, and test instrument front-ends requiring a 35-position shrouded cable header at 2.54 mm pitch. The taller shroud (04 height code) provides additional mechanical protection for the 35 contacts during cable connection in field-service or harsh industrial environments. It is also used on development and evaluation boards where flat ribbon cables or discrete wire harnesses must be frequently connected and disconnected without risk of contact damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the -04 height code on the TSM-135-04-S-SH-A differ from the -03 variant in terms of shroud dimensions?
The -04 suffix on the TSM-135-04-S-SH-A designates a taller shroud height compared to the -03 version, typically adding approximately 1 mm to 2 mm of additional plastic wall height above the contact tips. This extra clearance improves mechanical guidance during mating at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch and provides better physical protection of all 35 contacts against accidental damage in environments where cables are connected by hand without precise alignment fixtures.
For a 35-channel sensor interface panel, why choose the TSM-135-04-S-SH-A over an unshrouded header?
An unshrouded header allows a mating plug to be inserted off-center or at the wrong angle, potentially bending contacts or creating intermittent connections across the 35-position interface. The TSM-135-04-S-SH-A shroud physically constrains the mating connector to correct alignment within approximately 0.5 mm tolerance, ensuring all 35 contacts engage simultaneously and preventing the single-pin misalignment faults that cause difficult-to-diagnose intermittent failures in multi-channel sensor and actuator wiring.
What ribbon cable or discrete wire assemblies mate with TSM-135-04-S-SH-A in a complete wire-to-board solution?
The TSM-135-04-S-SH-A mates with standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch single-row female crimp housings and 35-conductor IDC ribbon cable connectors rated for 28 AWG conductors at up to 300 V and 1 A per contact. Flat ribbon cable widths for 35-conductor single-row assemblies are approximately 44.5 mm, and the horizontal exit orientation of the SH-A package allows cable routing parallel to the PCB surface to minimize connector height above board.
When evaluating TSM-135-04-S-SH-A versus a dual-row 18-position header for a 35-signal interface, what layout tradeoffs arise?
The TSM-135-04-S-SH-A single-row 35-position format spans approximately 88.9 mm in board length at 2.54 mm pitch, whereas a dual-row 18-position header accommodating 36 signals occupies only about 45 mm. Designers should choose the TSM-135-04-S-SH-A when board edge space is available along one axis and single-row ribbon cable assemblies are preferred for cable identification simplicity, accepting the longer board edge requirement in exchange for lower cable complexity and reduced connector height profile.
