16-position breakaway at 3 A per contact
The 4-102979-0-08 is the 16-circuit member of TE's AMPMODU Mod II breakaway header line, dual-row, unshrouded, with a push-pull fastening system. Gold mating contacts rated 3 A per circuit at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch; the through-hole right-angle mounting suits board-edge routing where the connector sits parallel to the PCB.
Position count across the Mod II ladder
Within the AMPMODU Mod II 102979 base series the 4-102979-0-08's 16 positions sit between the 14-position and 20-position siblings — the 0.100" pitch, dual-row footprint, and gold mating finish are shared across the series, so match the position count to circuit count.
