There are no srews, pin header or cable necessary. Soldered means mounted. This is the the blue-white optic together with a smart production method. The new display EA DIP162-DNLW is compatible to the yellow/green DIP-line from ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY. For a 2x16 display with 6.68mm font size outline dimension are very small: just 75x27x10.8mm !
