M80-5T11042MC

Overview

The M80-5T11042MC is a Datamate J-Tek series header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a vertical through-hole mounting style with 10 positions arranged in two rows. The mating pitch is 0.079 inches (2.00mm), and the contact length is 0.130 inches (3.30mm). The insulation height measures 0.220 inches (5.60mm). Contacts are made of phosphor bronze with gold plating on the mating surface and tin plating on the tail. The housing is black, glass-filled polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) rated UL94 V-0. Rated current is 2.2A at 120V. Operating temperature range is -55°C to 121°C.

Feature Summary

• Push-turn locking mechanism for secure connection
• Keyed design prevents misalignment during mating
• Four-wall shielding provides electromagnetic interference protection
• Compatible with mating flange for panel or board integration

Applications

• Automotive electronics systems
• Industrial control equipment
• Military communication devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix MC against the official Harwin datasheet to confirm the presence of the mating flange and keying configuration. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required pin count and row configuration. Cross-reference the lead time with the manufacturer's current production schedule as standard delivery periods may vary based on regional distribution channels.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, keyed header with push-turn locking is required for high-reliability applications. The 2.00mm pitch allows for dense circuit layouts while maintaining robust mechanical stability. Consider the operating temperature range and voltage rating to ensure compatibility with the target system's electrical environment and physical constraints.

Part Context

This connector belongs to the Datamate J-Tek family, designed for demanding environments requiring reliable signal and power transmission. The series offers various mounting styles and locking mechanisms. The M80-5T11042MC specifically utilizes the T-series locking feature, providing a secure connection without additional screws, suitable for vibration-prone applications.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include M80-5T11042FC for female counterparts or other variants with different pin counts. Verify that any replacement maintains the same 2.00mm pitch, locking type, and shielding characteristics to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.
