Quickie Series — Board-to-Cable Shrouded Header
The FCI 10080054-001LF is the 10-circuit member of the Quickie™ series, a dual-row board-to-cable male header with 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch and through-hole press-fit/solder termination. Four-wall shrouding surrounds the contact array and a dedicated keying slot prevents mis-mating in multi-connector assemblies. All 10 positions are loaded with square-pin male contacts in a phosphor bronze alloy; the mating face carries 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold plating. Insulation is glass-filled polyester rated UL94 V-0, standing 0.640" (16.26 mm) above the board plane. The push-pull fastening type relies on a frictional engagement rather than a screw lock, suited to applications where deliberate insertion and removal cycles are the norm.
Fit and Selection
Pitch and row spacing are both 0.100" (2.54 mm), meaning the footprint matches the standard 0.100" grid used across the Quickie family. The post extends 0.160" (4.06 mm) below the insulator face; overall contact length is 0.629" (15.97 mm). The 4-wall shroud and keying slot govern physical compatibility — this header accepts only a mating receptacle with the matching keying feature and shroud geometry. Verify the keyway profile matches the intended housing or IDC assembly.
Typical Applications
Board-to-cable style headers of this pitch are common in industrial automation and instrumentation where a mid-density ribbon or discrete-wire connector bridges the board edge to a wire harness. The shrouded 4-wall design adds contact protection in environments where accidental shorting or debris intrusion is a concern, and the push-pull mating is practical for field-serviceable interconnects.
Sourcing and Lifecycle
The 10080054-001LF is listed Active. No official successor or cross-reference exists for this base product number. Verify the position count and keyway profile against the existing BOM before ordering; sourced to order against RFQ.
