The 1.80 mm height above board keeps the assembly low-profile for tight enclosures. This is a bottom-contact connector: the FFC conductor pattern must face downward when inserted. A flipped flex shorts the wrong row, so confirm the cable orientation before seating the actuator. ## Ratings and Contact Interface Tin plating is cost-effective for low-cycle signal duty — the 20 mating cycles listed are the practical limit before contact wear increases resistance. The housing is glass-filled nylon, rated UL94 V-0, and the actuator is glass-filled PPS — both halogen-free. It is RoHS compliant. ## Peer Alternatives in the SFV-R Series The difference is the actuator colour (black on the -9HLF, unspecified on the -1HLF) and the presence of Digi-Reel packaging on the -1HLF. For a BOM line, either fills the same footprint, but confirm the actuator colour if visual matching matters. If the design needs top-contact instead of bottom-contact, the SFV12R-2STE9HLF is the mirror — same pitch, positions, and ratings, but the contacts face upward. The SFV10R-1STE9HLF drops to 10 positions for a narrower cable; all other specs match.","metaTitle":"SFV12R-1STE9HLF Amphenol ICC (FCI) 12-Pos 0.50mm FFC/FPC","metaDescription":"SFV12R-1STE9HLF FFC/FPC connector, 12 positions, 0.50mm pitch, right-angle SMT, bottom contact, tin plating, ZIF slide lock.
