Overview

The TE Connectivity 102398-7 is an 18-position wire-to-board connector assembly engineered for reliable electrical interconnections in industrial and electronic applications. This black receptacle connector features a compact 2-row design with a 2.54 mm (0.1 inch) centerline pitch, delivering high-density connectivity in space-constrained environments. Utilizing Insulation Displacement (IDC) connection technology, the 102398-7 enables rapid and secure wire termination without pre-stripping, reducing installation time and minimizing connection errors. The connector's robust black housing is constructed for durability in demanding industrial and electronic environments, including automotive systems, telecommunications infrastructure, and industrial control panels. With 18 positions across two rows, this connector offers significant connectivity density for its size, making it ideal for complex wiring harnesses and board-level connections. The IDC technology ensures consistent signal integrity and mechanical stability, while the standard 2.54 mm pitch facilitates compatibility with a wide range of mating connectors and cables. Designed for precision and long-term performance, the 102398-7 prioritizes ease of assembly and reliability in high-density electrical interconnection requirements.
