10121505-001212BLF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10121505-001212BLF is a dual-edge female edgeboard connector belonging to the HPCE series. It features 24 positions, configured as 12 signal and 12 power contacts. The connector utilizes a 2.54 mm pitch and is designed for through-hole mounting with a vertical orientation. Contact surfaces are finished with gold or Gold GXT plating on copper alloy substrates. The housing is constructed from black thermoplastic material. It supports non-specified dual-edge cards with a thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). The component operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +105°C.

Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female configuration for secure board-to-board interconnection
• Gold or Gold GXT contact plating for enhanced conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Integrated board lock mechanism for mechanical stability during operation
• Vertical through-hole termination style for standard PCB assembly

Applications

• High-performance computing systems
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Industrial control modules
• Data processing hardware

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix requirements against the official datasheet to ensure compatibility with mating card specifications. Confirm that the Gold GXT plating option aligns with your environmental and reliability standards. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding material substitutions or manufacturing location changes. Ensure ordering quantities match the manufacturer's standard packaging constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge female interface is required for high-density signal and power routing. The 2.54 mm pitch accommodates standard board thicknesses while maintaining reliable electrical contact. Consider the thermal operating range and mechanical locking features for applications requiring robust physical retention in vertical mounting configurations.

Part Context

This connector is part of the HPCE (High Performance Card Edge) product line by Amphenol ICC (FCI). The HPCE series is engineered for demanding applications requiring high signal integrity and reliable power delivery. The brand transition from FCI to Amphenol ICC maintains the legacy design specifications while integrating broader global supply chain capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Verify pin count, pitch, and mounting orientation before substituting. Ensure mating card specifications remain compatible with the replacement component's contact geometry.
