Key Features
- Board stacking plug connector with male sq-pin contacts in rectangular pattern for reliable PCB-to-PCB signal and power interconnection
- Compact body dimensions of 0.48" x 0.177" x 0.122" enable tight board stacking pitch in space-constrained multi-board assemblies
- Molex 171446 series design ensures repeatable mating cycles with stable contact resistance across industrial temperature and vibration environments
Applications
The Molex 171446-1102 is used in board stacking assemblies for industrial PLCs, communication modules, and embedded computing systems where reliable PCB-to-PCB interconnect in a plug-and-socket configuration is required. Its rectangular sq-pin contact pattern supports mixed signal and power routing between stacked PCBs in compact enclosures with limited vertical clearance. The part is also commonly used in test fixtures and modular instrumentation platforms requiring repeatable board-level connections.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the body dimensions of the Molex 171446-1102 and how do they influence board stacking height?
The 171446-1102 body measures 0.48 inch in length, 0.177 inch in depth, and 0.122 inch in breadth. The mated stack height is determined by this depth combined with the mating socket header, typically resulting in a board-to-board clearance of 4 to 6 mm depending on the matching socket, suitable for compact 1U or half-rack module assemblies.
Which Molex socket header is the correct mating partner for the 171446-1102 plug connector?
The 171446-1102 is a plug in the Molex 171446 board stacking series and mates with the corresponding Molex socket (receptacle) headers from the same series. The male sq-pin contact pattern requires precise alignment with 0.1-inch or 2.54 mm pitch socket contacts; designers should verify contact pitch and row count against the PCB footprint to confirm a zero-force-error mating with rated contact resistance below 30 mΩ.
What is the factory lead time for Molex 171446-1102 and what procurement strategies reduce supply risk?
The factory lead time for 171446-1102 is 20 weeks, which is longer than typical connector lead times of 4 to 8 weeks. Procurement teams should plan purchase orders at least 5 months ahead of PCB assembly start and consider qualifying a buffer stock of at least 10% above the bill-of-materials quantity to absorb demand fluctuations during the 20-week supply window.
Can the Molex 171446-1102 be used in applications requiring vibration resistance, such as automotive or industrial motor drives?
The Molex 171446 series board stacking connectors are designed for industrial-grade environments and the sq-pin contact style provides positive mating retention suitable for moderate vibration. For automotive applications requiring compliance with IEC 60068-2-6 vibration tests at 10 to 2000 Hz and 10 g acceleration, designers should review the specific mating retention force specification — typically 0.5 N to 2 N per contact — and add board-level retention hardware if peak g-forces exceed the connector's rated hold-down force.
