Adapter Identity and Series Position
The Hirose DF11-10DEP-2A is a 10-position, 2-row plug-to-plug adapter from the DF11 series, a compact 2.00mm pitch interconnect family used for wire-to-board and inline signal connections in consumer electronics, industrial controls, and automotive interior systems. Both ends terminate as plug housings with male pins, making this an inline adapter rather than a standard header or receptacle — it bridges two DF11 receptacle cable assemblies or directly mates with a DF11 receptacle on a board. The 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch and dual-row layout match the standard DF11 footprint, so the board-side pattern is the same as any 10-position DF11 header.
Last Buy — Sourcing Reality
The DF11-10DEP-2A carries a Last Buy lifecycle status. This means Hirose has announced end-of-production — the part is not in active manufacture and is available only through remaining distributor inventory or the surplus channel. If your BOM calls for this exact part, the window for factory orders has closed; sourcing is limited to what independent distributors hold. Each order is quoted against current availability — confirmed at quote time, not assumed.
Mounting and Physical Fit
The snap-in design means the panel cutout must match the DF11-10DEP-2A's housing profile; it's not a board-mounted part. Both ends present male pins, so it accepts two DF11 receptacle housings (like the DF11-10DS-2C) or one receptacle and a direct board-mount header on the other side. The 2.00mm row spacing mirrors the pitch, keeping the overall footprint compact for dense harness layouts.
