Product details

Contact Rating and Plating Duty

No official successor or pin-compatible alternative is listed from Amphenol ICC. The BergStik II series includes many 0.100" pitch headers; a different position count or plating grade would be a functional replacement only if the board layout is adjusted.

Frequently asked questions

Is 68779-172HLF shrouded or unshrouded, and what does that mean for mating?

It is unshrouded — the pins are exposed without a plastic shroud. This means the mating connector must be aligned manually or by the board layout; there is no polarization keying.

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to 68779-172HLF?

No official pin-compatible alternative is listed from Amphenol ICC. Within the BergStik II series, a different position count or plating grade (e.g., tin instead of gold) would require a board layout change. For a direct drop-in, the exact 68779-172HLF is the only verified match.
