Board Fit and Contact Specs
The 10073456-013LF: The 0.230" (5.84mm) mating pin length engages fully with the receptacle contact beam.
Press-fit termination with through-hole mounting — the press-fit tail compresses into the plated through-hole without solder, common in backplane and high-reliability assemblies where rework or field replacement is anticipated. The 0.160" (4.06mm) post length clears standard board thicknesses. The keying slot prevents mismating with non-keyed counterparts.
Position Count Alternatives
The same 10073456 base series offers 10-position (10073456-001LF), 20-position (10073456-019LF), and 40-position (10073456-049LF) variants — all sharing the same 2.54mm pitch, gold plating, and press-fit termination. The 16-position version fills a mid-density BOM slot where 10 is too few and 20 is overkill.
