0.100" Pitch Breakaway Header – Board-Layout Fit
The 98401-102A10LF: Surface-mount termination with a push-pull fastening type and an unshrouded profile keeps the stack height low — the insulation height is 0.084" (2.14 mm), which leaves room for the mating half above the board.
Gold GXT™ Mating Finish – Cycle Life and Environment
For a connector cycled quarterly in field service, this plating grade supports well over a decade of reconnect duty without contact resistance degradation.
3 A Per Contact – Current and Thermal Budget
In a 10-position header carrying 3 A on every circuit, the total power dissipation is under 1 W — well within the -65°C to 130°C operating range without forced airflow. The wide temperature range suits industrial enclosures and outdoor telecom cabinets where ambient swings are common.
No official pin-compatible replacement or successor has been announced; the 98401 base product number is the reference for this series.
