Frequently Asked Questions
How many mating cycles is the S2M-142-01-L-D Tiger Eye contact rated for in industrial applications?
Samtec Tiger Eye contacts in the S2M-142-01-L-D are engineered for high-cycle reliability, typically rated for 100 or more mating cycles while maintaining contact resistance below 20 mΩ. This makes them suitable for industrial equipment requiring periodic cable replacement or field servicing across 84 positions at 2.00 mm pitch.
What wire gauges can be terminated into the S2M-142-01-L-D discrete wire socket?
The S2M-142-01-L-D discrete wire socket accepts typical wire gauges in the range of 24 AWG to 28 AWG, supporting flexible cable harness construction with strand counts suited for both signal and low-current power paths. This range allows use with standard wire bundles found in 84-circuit industrial and defense wiring assemblies.
When should a designer choose S2M-142-01-L-D over a board-mounted connector in a 84-position application?
The S2M-142-01-L-D is the preferred choice when the PCB and cable must be routed separately or replaced independently, since the discrete wire socket allows harness routing through enclosures with up to 84 wires at 2.00 mm pitch. Board-mounted alternatives fix the connection point, limiting mechanical flexibility in rack-mounted and panel-wired systems.
What is the positional density advantage of using 2.00 mm pitch in the S2M-142-01-L-D compared to 2.54 mm pitch connectors?
At 2.00 mm pitch, the S2M-142-01-L-D reduces connector length by approximately 21% compared to an equivalent 2.54 mm pitch 84-position socket, saving significant harness and panel space. This pitch reduction allows more circuits in the same linear dimension, making it preferred in compact industrial controllers and test equipment chassis where 84 discrete signals must be routed.
