Frequently Asked Questions
How many contact positions does the QTT-143-03-L-T provide and what is its pitch?
The QTT-143-03-L-T provides 129 contact positions at a 2.00 mm pitch, housed in a 3.407-inch body length. This high contact count makes it suitable for power plane distribution across stacked PCBs in server backplanes, industrial computers, and data center switching equipment that require simultaneous power and signal routing through a single interconnect.
What contact finish does the QTT-143-03-L-T use and how does it affect mating durability?
The mating contacts are finished with 10 microinches of gold over nickel on a phosphor bronze base material, providing low and stable contact resistance across hundreds of mating cycles. The gold finish resists oxidation and fretting corrosion, maintaining reliable electrical connections in environments exposed to vibration or repeated board removal, such as field-replaceable server modules or test fixtures.
Which board stacking system applications best match the QTT-143-03-L-T connector?
The QTT-143-03-L-T is best matched to applications requiring high pin-count board stacking at 2.00 mm pitch, including server compute blades, industrial motion controllers, and telecom line cards. Its 129-position capacity supports simultaneous routing of power planes and high-speed differential signals across parallel PCB layers, reducing cabling complexity in rack systems with 1U to 4U form factors.
What termination finish is used on the solder tails of QTT-143-03-L-T and is it compatible with lead-free assembly?
The termination tails use tin (Sn) with a nickel (Ni) barrier, which is fully compatible with lead-free reflow soldering at peak temperatures up to 260°C per JEDEC J-STD-020. The nickel barrier prevents tin whisker growth and solder joint embrittlement, making the QTT-143-03-L-T compliant with RoHS and suitable for modern lead-free SMT manufacturing processes.
