HDMI 1.4 Receptacle, 19 Contacts, 10,000 Mating Cycles
The Amphenol 10078837-001LF is a 19-contact HDMI 1.4 receptacle designed for applications that demand more than a standard consumer-grade HDMI port.
Mounting and Orientation: Vertical Flange with Hybrid Termination
This receptacle mounts vertically with a flange, allowing it to be secured to a panel or chassis for strain relief. The termination is listed as both Surface Mount and Through Hole — the signal pins are surface-mount for high-speed signal routing, while the solder retention tabs and board guide provide through-hole mechanical anchoring. This hybrid approach keeps the signal path clean while resisting the shear forces from cable insertion and removal.
Electrical Ratings and Signal Standard
The 0.5A per contact is typical for HDMI differential pairs and control lines; the 40VAC rating covers the hot-plug detect and +5V supply lines.
Comparison with Horizontal-Mount Siblings
The 10078837-001LF is the vertical-mount variant of the Amphenol 10029449 series HDMI receptacles. The closest functional peers — 10029449-111RLF and 10029449-101RLF — are horizontal-mount (right-angle) versions with the same 19 contacts, 0.5A rating, gold plating, and 10,000-cycle life. The 10029449-002RLF adds a GXT™ contact finish instead of standard gold.
