10121506-320816ALF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 10121506-320816ALF is a standard card edge connector receptacle belonging to the HPCE series. It features a dual female configuration with 56 positions and a 2.54 mm pitch. The component utilizes GXT contact plating and solder termination for secure board attachment. Rated for 9 A current and 17 V voltage, it operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +105°C. The housing is constructed from thermoplastic material, providing an insulation resistance of 500 MOhms at 5 GOhms.

Feature Summary

• Dual female card edge design for high-density signal and power routing
• GXT contact plating ensures reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Thermoplastic housing provides structural integrity and electrical insulation
• Solder termination supports through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards

Applications

• High-performance computing server backplanes
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Industrial control system interconnects
• Commercial electronic data processing units

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including the suffix ALF to ensure lead-free compliance and specific plating requirements. Confirm that the 56-position dual female configuration matches the target PCB footprint. Check for moisture sensitivity levels if storage conditions are critical. Ensure the 2.54 mm pitch aligns with the mating card edge specifications. Validate the operating temperature range against environmental constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, high-current card edge solution is required for vertical or right-angle mounting configurations. The HPCE series offers superior signal integrity compared to standard connectors. Consider the 9 A rating for power distribution needs. Verify compatibility with existing tooling for soldering processes. Evaluate space constraints relative to the 2.54 mm pitch density.

Part Context

This connector is part of the HPCE (High Performance Card Edge) family by Amphenol FCI. The series is designed for demanding applications requiring high reliability and performance. Amphenol acquired FCI in 2016, integrating its technologies into the ICC division. The HPCE line focuses on advanced plating and mechanical stability for enterprise markets.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching the 56-position count, 2.54 mm pitch, and dual female interface. Verify that any alternative meets the same GXT plating and thermoplastic housing standards.
