The Amphenol FCI 10029449-002TLF is a 19-contact HDMI Type A receptacle built to the HDMI 1.4 specification. It carries 0.5 A per contact at 40 V and is rated for 10,000 mating cycles — well above the 5,000-cycle typical for consumer HDMI jacks.
Mounting and Termination — Dual-Anchor Right-Angle
This connector uses surface-mount solder tails for the signal contacts, with a right-angle orientation that places the HDMI port parallel to the PCB. Two through-hole mounting flanges — one on each side — anchor the shell to the board, taking the mechanical strain off the SMT joints during cable insertion and removal. The package is tray, suited for hand-load or pick-and-place lines that handle tray-fed parts.
HDMI 1.4 vs 2.0 — What This Connector Supports
The 10029449-002TLF is specified to HDMI 1.4, which supports up to 10.2 Gbps bandwidth — enough for 4K video at 30 Hz, 3D, and Ethernet over HDMI. It is not rated for HDMI 2.0's 18 Gbps or higher refresh rates. The physical 19-pin Type A interface is identical between 1.4 and 2.0, so the connector will mate with a 2.0 cable or source, but the signal path is limited by the 1.4 spec. For a 2.0 build, select a connector explicitly rated for HDMI 2.0.
The 10029449-002RLF and 10029449-001RLF are the tape-and-reel variants of the same connector.
