10127820-2021GLF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10127820-2021GLF is a vertical power-to-board header connector belonging to the Minitek Pwr 4.2 series. It features a dual-row configuration with 20 positions and a 4.2 mm pitch. The connector utilizes brass contacts with gold plating for reliable conductivity. Designed for through-hole mounting, it supports a maximum operating temperature of +105°C and a minimum of -40°C. The housing is made of natural-colored thermoplastic material rated UL94 V-0. This component is engineered for high-current applications, offering robust mechanical stability and electrical performance in demanding environments.

Feature Summary

• Dual-row vertical header design optimized for power distribution
• Gold-plated brass contacts ensure low resistance and corrosion resistance
• Through-hole termination provides secure mechanical anchoring
• High-temperature resistant insulation material ensures thermal stability

Applications

• Server and storage system power distribution
• Telecommunications equipment power interfaces
• Industrial control board power connections
• Data center infrastructure power headers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating thickness and current rating requirements against the official datasheet before ordering. Confirm that the 4.2mm pitch aligns with the target PCB footprint. Ensure the vertical orientation matches the assembly constraints. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications. Validate the supplier's authorization to prevent counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-current vertical power interface is required. The 4.2mm pitch allows for larger conductors compared to signal connectors. Consider the dual-row layout for increased pin density in power applications. Ensure the mating connector matches the header's gender and row configuration. Verify thermal management needs given the 105°C operating limit.

Part Context

This connector is part of the Minitek Pwr 4.2 family from Amphenol ICC (FCI). The series is designed for power-to-board applications requiring high reliability. Similar parts in the series vary by position count and contact finish. The 10127820 base indicates a specific header style within the broader Minitek portfolio. It complements other FCI power solutions for complete system interconnectivity.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 20-position, 4.2mm pitch vertical headers from Amphenol or compatible manufacturers. Verify mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings before substitution. Cross-reference with Minitek Pwr 4.2 series alternatives. Ensure mating compatibility with existing socket connectors.
