SAS 29P Dummy Female PCB Connector 1.27mm Pitch 180° Solder Wire Terminal

The SAS 29P dummy female connector is a 1.27mm pitch electronic connector designed for test, simulation and protection of SAS / SATA interfaces in servers, storage systems and industrial equipment. It uses a 180° solder wire termination, allowing wires or cables to be soldered directly to the terminals, making it suitable for customized electrical and electronic wire harnesses where a dummy or simulated SAS 29-pin interface is required.

Terminals are made from phosphor bronze C5191-H (t = 0.25mm) and finished with a robust plating system: 50µ" nickel underlayer for corrosion resistance, 15µ" gold on the contact area to keep low and stable contact resistance, and 80µ" tin on the solder and crimp area to ensure reliable solder joints to the wire. The housing and base are molded from glass-filled LCP, black, UL94-V0, providing high mechanical strength, dimensional stability and heat resistance during soldering.

With a rating of 1.5A @ 40VAC, contact resistance ≤30mΩ, insulation resistance ≥1000MΩ and dielectric strength of 500VAC/minute, this 29-pin dummy female connector offers stable performance for both signal and low-power transmission. The defined mating, unmating and pin retention forces help maintain secure engagement with the mating plug and prevent accidental disconnection, making it a reliable choice for PCB, wire and cable customization in server, automotive, transmission and other power-electronic applications.

⚠️ Notes

• Make sure the working voltage, current and temperature of your design stay within the connector’s rated values, with proper safety margin.
• Design PCB pads, holes and mechanical space according to the drawing and pitch, and avoid bending or twisting stress on the connector after soldering or assembly.
• Select appropriate wire gauge, insulation and cable structure based on current load, signal speed and bending requirements for both power and signal terminals.
• For IDC / crimp types, use matched tooling and press-force to ensure full insulation displacement; for solder types, follow a controlled soldering profile to avoid overheating the LCP housing.
• Insert and pull out the connector along the mating direction, avoid pulling on the cable itself, and do not exceed the specified mating/unmating force or durability cycles.
• Keep gold-plated contact areas clean and dry, avoid touching them with bare fingers, and store products in dry anti-static packaging before assembly.
