55101-S17-36

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The 55101-S17-36 is a BergStik® series unshrouded header connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (FCI). It features a 36-position configuration with a 2.54mm pitch, designed for board-to-board applications. The component utilizes through-hole right-angle termination and employs phosphor bronze contacts with GXT™ gold plating on the mating interface. Rated at 5A current and 110V voltage, it offers a robust mechanical connection suitable for high-density electronic assemblies requiring reliable signal or power transmission.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Right-angle through-hole mounting for compact board integration
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts for corrosion resistance
• Unshrouded design for flexible mating options

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections in industrial electronics
• High-density signal routing in telecommunications equipment
• Power distribution modules in computing hardware

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status as this specific variant may be non-compliant compared to newer LF versions. Confirm lead times due to potential obsolescence or limited stock availability. Ensure mating connectors match the 2.54mm pitch and unshrouded header specifications to guarantee proper mechanical fit and electrical continuity during assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this model when right-angle through-hole mounting is required for space-constrained designs. The 5A rating supports moderate power applications, while the unshrouded style allows for versatile mating configurations. Consider alternative LF-part numbers if environmental compliance is mandatory for the target market.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

Part of the BergStik® family, known for standard 2.54mm spacing and reliable performance in general-purpose interconnects. This specific part number represents a right-angle variant within the broader 55101 series, offering distinct mechanical orientation compared to vertical headers.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Check for 55101-G17-36 as a potential functional substitute within the same series. Verify pin count, pitch, and mounting style compatibility before substitution.
