Overview

The TE Connectivity 102398-2 8-Position Wire-to-Board Connector is a precision-engineered receptacle assembly designed for reliable electrical interconnection in compact industrial and electronic systems. This black connector features a 0.1 in [2.54 mm] centerline pitch with an 8-position, 2-row configuration, utilizing advanced Insulation Displacement (IDC) connection technology for fast, secure wire termination without stripping. The IDC method eliminates the need for soldering or crimping, reducing installation time by up to 50% while minimizing connection errors and ensuring consistent electrical performance. Engineered for durability, this connector delivers robust signal integrity in demanding environments, including telecommunications infrastructure, industrial control systems, embedded electronics, and automotive applications. The compact two-row design optimizes space efficiency in PCB layouts, making it ideal for high-density interconnect solutions where board real estate is at a premium. The black housing provides mechanical stability and resistance to environmental factors, ensuring long-term reliability in both commercial and industrial settings. Key specifications include a 2.54mm pitch spacing, 8 positions across two rows, and compatibility with standard 28-24 AWG solid or stranded wires. The connector’s IDC terminals are designed to accept wires without prior stripping, simplifying assembly and reducing labor costs. With a UNSPSC code of 39121432, this connector meets industry standards for electrical interconnect components, ensuring broad compatibility with TE Connectivity’s ecosystem of mating headers and accessories. For engineers and procurement professionals seeking a cost-effective, high-reliability solution for wire-to-board connections, the 102398-2 delivers consistent performance with minimal installation complexity. Its proven design and TE Connectivity’s reputation for quality make it a trusted choice for applications requiring precision, durability, and efficient assembly processes.
