Can anyone identify these connectors please
I need to identify these connectors (J10 and J350 on the first photo), so I can make some extension cables to allow access for fault investigation. They are from a Bose Companion 5 multimedia speaker system.
The pins are 1mm square and the contact pitch is 4mm. Does anyone recognise the connector type so that I can order some, or possibly have a few spare contact pins and sockets please. Ron Last edited by ronbryan; 17th Sep 2023 at 12:31 pm. Reason: Added J10 and J350 to description |

Re: Can anyone identify these connectors please
The thing to remember is the headers come separately from the pins, which need crimping on. The pitch is 0.2" and they are readily available

True, but for test purposes you can buy headers with tags on - by the bucket load sourced from China of course...

Ron
I have some RS 178-9546 which is friction lock, not latch but should be O.K. for test purposes, they are IDC which means no crimping, Ihave 5 way versions as well which could be cut down for the 2 way connector. Alternatively I have Farnell 143-161 which is crimp pin, I could crimp some pins on lengths of wire if you wanted. I don`t have any of the pin headers but they are readily available, also off old duff boards. Barry |

Re: Can anyone identify these connectors please
I'm wondering if the connectors in my photos (post #1) are JST VH style, which are 3.96mm pitch, almost the 4mm I measured. I've ordered some two pin ones for trial.

Re: Can anyone identify these connectors please
Thanks for looking and for the offer of help Barry. Without having noticed your post above, I've steamed off and ordered some housings and socket contacts, which should arrive later this week. I may get back to you about your offer of crimping some wires on to the contacts if it proves difficult to insert them after soldering.
