DisplayPort 1.1a Receptacle for Board-Edge Video
The TE Connectivity 2040247-5 is a 20-contact DisplayPort receptacle conforming to the DisplayPort 1.1a specification. It is a surface-mount, right-angle connector designed for board-edge mounting on a video output card or docking station PCB. The 20 contacts carry the full DisplayPort signal set — main link lanes, AUX channel, HPD, and power — in a single shielded shell. This makes the 2040247-5 a strong choice for test fixtures, industrial panel PCs, or any application where the cable is plugged and unplugged frequently over the product life.
Voltage and Current — Signal-Level Ratings
Rated 40VAC and 0.5A per contact, the 2040247-5 is a signal-only interconnect. The 40VAC rating covers the DisplayPort AUX channel and HPD signals; the 0.5A per-contact limit is typical for high-speed differential pairs where the current draw is negligible. No power delivery beyond the 3.3 V AUX bus is intended.
Mounting and Termination — SMT with Flange
The flange provides a horizontal mounting feature that can be screwed to the chassis for additional mechanical retention against cable strain. The housing material is rated UL94 V-0.
