M80-8260842

Overview

The M80-8260842 is a Datamate L-Tek header connector featuring an 8-position, 2-row vertical surface mount configuration with a 2.00mm pitch. It utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with 0.75µm gold plating on mating surfaces and tin-lead plating on solder posts. The housing is constructed from glass-filled PPS rated UL94 V-0, providing a friction lock mechanism. Rated for 800V and 2.2A, it operates within -55°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Vertical surface mount design for board-to-board or cable applications
• Datamate L-Tek series with friction lock retention
• Gold-plated mating contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Shielded four-wall housing structure

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Cable-to-board connections
• Industrial control systems
