Electronic – Help identifying 8 pin connector

connectoridentification

Where should I start when trying to identify this connector on a WaveShare epaper hat? I've browsed through more Mouser pages than I want to think about. The manufacturer (WaveShare) has been downright unhelpful.
Additionally, what crimp ends are appropriate for this type of connector?

I think I've narrowed this down to the following categories which still yields ~400 results:

  • Connector > Header & Wire Housing
  • 8 Position
  • 1 Row
  • Pitch ~2.5-2.54
  • Female

What can I do to further narrow down this search?

Here are a few more pictures of the male and female parts of this connector.

As requested, here are images of the crimp-on ends for completeness

I believe it's a JST PH 2.0 connector.

Waveshare's product page for the e-Paper HAT says the package includes a "PH2.0 20cm 8Pin x1" which then made things quite easy :-)

The connector is a JST PHR-8, available here or here for instance.
