What are the key features of STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR?

  • 118 dual-row positions at 2.00 mm pitch provide 236 contact points in a compact surface-mount shrouded housing
  • Female/male mixed contact configuration offers versatile mating options for complex cable-to-board system designs
  • Surface-mount termination enables automated pick-and-place and lead-free reflow soldering at up to 260°C
  • Tape-and-reel packaging supports continuous high-volume feeder loading for efficient SMT production lines

What is STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR used for?

STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR is suited for high-density cable-to-board interconnects in industrial computing, telecommunications equipment, and test instrumentation requiring 118 dual-row connections within a compact 2.00 mm pitch footprint. Its mixed female/male contact configuration accommodates system architectures where both plug and receptacle interfaces must share the same connector body. The surface-mount design integrates with standard SMT assembly processes to reduce manufacturing complexity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many contact positions does STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR offer, and what pitch does it use?

The STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR provides 118 positions in a dual-row configuration at a 2.00 mm center-to-center pitch, totaling 236 individual contact points. At 2.00 mm pitch, the 118-position dual-row body spans approximately 59 mm in length, which is more compact than a single-row 2.54 mm pitch connector that would need over 120 mm to accommodate the same number of contacts.

What does the FM (female/male) designation mean for STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR in a cable-to-board system?

The FM designation in STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR indicates a mixed female and male contact configuration within the same connector body, allowing the connector to simultaneously mate with both pin-type and socket-type cable assembly terminations. This is useful in modular system architectures where a single connector position must interface with different signal directions or cable assembly types, reducing the number of separate connectors needed on a PCB with 118 mixed-direction signal channels.

How does the shrouded housing of STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR prevent mismating in field assembly?

The shroud surrounding the 118-position dual-row contacts in STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR physically guides the mating cable plug into proper alignment at the 2.00 mm pitch and blocks off-axis or reversed insertion that could damage fine-pitch contacts during field cable installation. In systems where technicians connect harnesses under poor lighting or in confined panel enclosures, the polarized shroud reduces mismating incidents that would otherwise cause signal faults across all 236 contact points.

Why is tape-and-reel packaging important for STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR in high-volume production?

Tape-and-reel packaging for STMM-118-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR allows the connector to feed directly into SMT pick-and-place machines without manual part handling between reels. For production runs of 1000 units or more per month, reel-fed connectors reduce operator touches per board from approximately 5 steps to 1 automated placement, cutting assembly cycle time by 15 to 30 seconds per connector and lowering defect rates from misoriented manual placements on the fine 2.00 mm pitch footprint.
