What the 10-Pin 0.100" Pitch Means on the Board
The 95278-802T10: Unshrouded means the pins are exposed — fine for controlled environments where accidental shorting isn't a risk, but in a high-vibration or crowded board, a shrouded header would offer better pin protection.
Gold GXT Finish and Mating Cycle Life
For a board-to-board interconnect that gets disconnected during test or rework, 15µin gold is a solid choice; it'll outlast the product's assembly cycle count. The post (solder tail) finish is tin-lead at 150.0µin (3.81µm), which is a legacy plating — not RoHS-compliant by today's standards, but still solderable with tin-lead processes. If your assembly line is RoHS-only, this part's post finish will be a problem.
Lifecycle Status and Sourcing Reality
The 95278-802T10 is marked Obsolete by Amphenol ICC (FCI). No direct pin-compatible replacement is listed on the official record, so a board spin or a cross to a different BERGSTIK variant may be needed. Sourced through independent distribution against an RFQ — availability and pricing confirmed at quote time, not held as shelf stock.
