Key Features
- Polarized shrouded housing with 4-position (S0P4) rectangular power contact arrangement prevents mis-mating and protects male contacts from damage during cable insertion
- Matte tin over nickel (50 µin) contact finish provides reliable low-resistance termination for power connections with good solderability and corrosion resistance
- Compact body (0.383" × 0.424") with dual-row (D) layout and 1-week factory lead time supports rapid prototyping and low-risk production scheduling
Applications
The IPBT-102-H2-T-D-K is used as the board-side power connector in industrial motor drives, LED power supplies, and embedded computing platforms where polarized, shrouded power connections prevent reverse-polarity damage. Its compact dual-row 4-position layout suits applications in robotics controllers, DC-DC converter output harnesses, and fan/pump power distribution boards requiring reliable cable-to-board power delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the polarized shrouded design of IPBT-102-H2-T-D-K prevent mis-mating in field installations?
The IPBT-102-H2-T-D-K's shrouded housing features a keyed polarization slot that physically prevents the mating cable connector from being inserted in the wrong orientation. This is critical for power connectors carrying 12 V or 24 V DC bus current, where reverse polarity would immediately damage downstream electronics. The shroud also shields all 4 male contacts from accidental shorts during the mating process in cramped enclosures.
What is the contact finish specification of IPBT-102-H2-T-D-K and why does it matter for power connections?
The IPBT-102-H2-T-D-K uses matte tin over nickel plating (50 µin tin) on its contacts. Matte tin provides excellent solderability during PCB assembly reflow and maintains low contact resistance over thousands of mating cycles, whereas bright tin can be prone to whisker growth. The nickel underlayer acts as a diffusion barrier, extending connector life in applications where contacts carry continuous currents of several amperes.
What are the body dimensions of IPBT-102-H2-T-D-K and how much PCB keepout area is required?
The IPBT-102-H2-T-D-K has a body length of 0.383 inch (9.73 mm) and body breadth of 0.424 inch (10.77 mm). PCB keepout planning should add clearance for the mating cable plug overhang — typically at least 5 mm to 10 mm beyond the connector body footprint — plus cable egress routing space perpendicular to the board edge in the H2 (horizontal) mounting orientation.
For which power delivery scenarios is IPBT-102-H2-T-D-K a more suitable choice than a standard 0.100" unshrouded header?
Choose the IPBT-102-H2-T-D-K over an unshrouded 0.100" header when the application involves field-serviceable cable connections where technicians may insert or remove the power cable without visual guidance, or when the system operates at 12 V, 24 V, or 48 V DC where reverse-polarity would cause immediate damage. The shroud and polarization key reduce field service errors in industrial automation and power electronics panels where 4-circuit power routing requires reliable, repeatable mating.
