As you can see, both from the datasheet and from the screenshots, the connector is a bit special, in that it combines the power-pins on single pads, and only has 8 pins appart from the data-pins. image

I decided to make the footprint with individual pads for the A1/B12, A4/B9, B4/A9, and B1/A12 pairs. This way the footprint will work with the symbol already in kicads libraries.

However that does mean that there's two pads stacked on top of each-other. I chose to do 2 pads on top of eachother, instead of two smaller pads next to each other, to allow better routing in PCBnew
