The Molex 2132050002 is a busbar receptacle plug in the PowerPlane series, designed for solder termination to a PCB. This is a power-distribution interconnect — the busbar form factor carries higher current than a standard pin header, intended for DC rail or bulk power routing on a board. The housing is black and the part ships in tray packaging.
What is the current rating and operating temperature?
The evidence for this part does not list a specific current rating or operating temperature range. For a busbar-level interconnect, the actual current capacity depends on the busbar cross-section, the PCB copper pour, and the ambient temperature — the datasheet or product drawing for the full assembly would provide the derated figures. The solder termination is rated for the full busbar current when the joint is properly formed.
Is there a direct replacement for 2132050002?
The PowerPlane series includes multiple busbar receptacle variants, but without a specific successor order code listed, the 2132050002 should be treated as the sole BOM line item. If a second-source or alternate is needed, the full assembly drawing and busbar dimensions must be matched — this is not a standard pin-header swap.
