10131319-2012100LF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10131319-2012100LF is a vertical power-to-board header connector belonging to the Minitek Power4.2 series. It features a 4.2 mm pitch and provides 20 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration. The contacts are made of copper with a tin plating finish, ensuring reliable conductivity. Designed for surface mount termination, this component supports a maximum operating temperature of +105°C and a minimum of -40°C. It is rated for 12.5 A current per contact and offers an insulation resistance of 1 GOhms. The housing is natural colored, and the unit is supplied in a reel package.

Feature Summary

• Dual-row vertical header design for high-density power distribution
• Tin-plated copper contacts for corrosion resistance and conductivity
• Robust construction suitable for industrial and data communication environments

Applications

• Data communication equipment power interfaces
• Telecommunications infrastructure systems
• Industrial instrumentation power connections

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and environmental compliance status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors before purchase. Confirm that the tin-plated variant matches your assembly requirements. Ensure compatibility with your PCB footprint and reflow soldering profile. Check for any recent lifecycle notices or obsolescence warnings associated with this specific part number to avoid supply chain disruptions during production.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 4.2 mm pitch power connector is required for vertical board-to-board or cable-to-board applications. The dual-row layout maximizes current capacity within a compact footprint. Consider the tin plating for general-purpose use where gold plating is not strictly necessary. Verify that the 12.5 A rating meets the thermal and electrical demands of your specific circuit design under expected ambient conditions.

Part Context

This connector belongs to the Minitek Power4.2 family, which is engineered for robust power delivery in demanding electronic systems. The series is widely utilized in server, storage, and networking hardware where reliable high-current connections are critical. Amphenol ICC designs these components to withstand mechanical stress and thermal cycling common in industrial and telecommunications sectors.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 20-position, 4.2 mm pitch dual-row headers from the same Minitek Power4.2 series, such as different position counts like 10131319-122110RLF or 10131319-062110RLF. Cross-brand replacements require matching pitch, row count, current rating, and mounting style.
