Recognition & reference
Recognition illustrations are not to scale or fabrication drawings. The label-led symbols below, where present, are not interface geometry. Read the illustration limits in each exact reference; equal image boxes do not establish equal physical sizes.
Computer-generated illustrationP349 / JST wire-to-board / Connector form
A measured 2.0 mm pitch or white housing alone cannot establish a genuine JST PH mating pair or wiring.
Computer-generated illustrationP350 / JST wire-to-board / Connector form
The XH family name and nominal pitch are not interchangeable with JST PH, JST GH or generic 2.54 mm headers.
Computer-generated illustrationP351 / JST wire-to-board / Connector form
Many miniature connectors look similar; a single 1.0 mm measurement does not establish the exact SH housing or mating header.
Computer-generated illustrationP352 / JST wire-to-board / Connector form
GH’s locking arrangement distinguishes its series conceptually from the smaller friction-lock SH, but physical mating still requires exact part codes.

Before choosing a reference
Resolve abbreviations, informal names and legacy labels without treating an alias as an additional connector identity.
