2-104068-2

Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 2-104068-2 is a board-to-board and mezzanine connector header featuring male pins. It utilizes a through-hole termination method with a pitch of 0.050 inches (1.27mm). The component is designed as a double-sided, shrouded header with gold plating on the contacts. It belongs to the AMPMODU System 50 series and operates within a temperature range of -65°C to 105°C.

Feature Summary

• Double-sided shrouded design for secure alignment
• Gold-plated male pin contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Through-hole termination for robust board mounting

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Mezzanine connector systems
• General electronic equipment
• Telecommunications infrastructure

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact count and housing color against the manufacturer's official datasheet before procurement. Ensure that the through-hole footprint matches the PCB design requirements. Confirm compliance with UL94 V-0 flammability ratings if required by the application environment. Cross-reference the AMPMODU System 50 series specifications to ensure compatibility with mating connectors.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a double-sided, shrouded header with a 1.27mm pitch is required. Consider the through-hole mounting style for applications needing mechanical stability. Evaluate the operating temperature range of -65°C to 105°C against environmental conditions. Verify that the gold-plated contacts meet the electrical performance needs for the intended signal integrity.

Part Context

This connector is part of the AMPMODU System 50 family, known for high-density interconnect solutions. The system supports various configurations including headers, sockets, and wire-to-board options. The 2-104068-2 variant specifically addresses board-to-board and mezzanine applications requiring reliable vertical connections with shrouded guidance.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the AMPMODU System 50 series include part numbers such as 104068-1 and 6-104068-2. These alternatives share similar pitch and mounting characteristics but may differ in contact count or housing configuration. Verify dimensional compatibility and electrical ratings before substitution.
