BLY 2 98

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Overview

The BLY 2 98 is a 98-position through-hole header connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features a 2.00 mm (0.079 inch) pitch and utilizes gold-plated contact springs for reliable signal transmission. The connector body accommodates wire diameters ranging from 0.5 mm to 0.56 mm, ensuring secure termination for standard PCB applications.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Feature Summary

• Gold-plated contact springs ensure durable electrical connections with low contact resistance.
• Through-hole mounting design provides mechanical stability on printed circuit boards.
• Optimized for precise wire diameter accommodation within the 0.5 mm to 0.56 mm range.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Applications

• Industrial control system interconnections
• Consumer electronics assembly
• General-purpose PCB wiring

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the 98-contact configuration and 2.00 mm pitch specifications. Confirm the requirement for gold-plated contacts versus tin-plated alternatives available in other variants of the BLY 2 series. Ensure compatibility with the target wire gauge before finalizing procurement.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, through-hole header is required for robust PCB connections. The gold plating offers superior corrosion resistance compared to tin options. Consider the physical size constraints of the 98-position layout during the board design phase to ensure adequate spacing.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik BLY 2 series, which specializes in female headers designed for wire diameters between 0.5 mm and 0.56 mm. The series offers various pin counts and mounting styles, with the BLY 2 98 representing the 98-position variant optimized for through-hole implementation.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik BLY 2 models with different pin counts, such as the BLY 2 38 or BLY 2 70, provided the pitch and mounting style remain compatible. Cross-brand replacements require matching the 2.00 mm pitch and through-hole footprint.
