What are the key features of TST-136-05-L-D?
- 72-position dual-row layout on 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch for broad compatibility with standard IDC and female strip connectors
- Protective shroud prevents misalignment during mating and shields pins from mechanical damage in harsh environments
- L-style right-angle lead option routes signals parallel to the PCB, optimizing connector placement at board edges
What is TST-136-05-L-D used for?
The TST-136-05-L-D is used in industrial control panels, embedded computing systems, and telecommunications equipment where a 72-pin shrouded right-angle header is required for ribbon cable or backplane connections. The 0.100" pitch ensures compatibility with standard 2.54 mm pitch female housings and IDC connectors widely used in legacy and modern designs. The shroud's keying features prevent reverse insertion, reducing field wiring errors in multi-cable systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the total pin count and physical layout of the TST-136-05-L-D?
The TST-136-05-L-D has 72 pins arranged in a dual-row configuration with 36 pins per row on a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch. The L-style designation indicates right-angle leads, so the mating face is parallel to the PCB surface, allowing a ribbon cable or IDC harness to connect horizontally and exit from the board edge.
Which cable assemblies mate reliably with the TST-136-05-L-D shrouded header?
The TST-136-05-L-D mates with standard 0.100" pitch dual-row female cable connectors and 72-conductor IDC ribbon cable assemblies. SAMTEC's SSW and SFM series female socket strips are compatible, and third-party 2.54 mm pitch dual-row housings with 72 positions also engage the header correctly within the polarizing shroud.
When should a designer choose the TST-136-05-L-D over an unshrouded header for the same 72-pin requirement?
A shrouded header like the TST-136-05-L-D is preferred when field technicians may connect ribbon cables in low-visibility or high-pressure conditions where incorrect orientation could damage 72 signal lines simultaneously. The shroud enforces correct mating polarity and protects the 2.54 mm pitch pins from accidental bending, reducing rework costs in production and field service.
