The useful distinction
Recognize it. Then verify it.
TE identifies part 1-2492104-0 as a 0.5 mm pitch, 10-position, right-angle ZIF FPC connector with a bottom-contact mating location. [C362A]
The TE bottom-contact part is a separate product identity from the top-contact example; identical nominal pitch alone does not prove a compatible FPC or cable insertion orientation. [C362B]
TE lists part 1-2492104-0 with a stuffer actuator and a specified mating FPC/FFC thickness of 0.3 mm. [C362C]
Section A-A of TE drawing 2492104 depicts contact on the lower side of the inserted cable; the connector is still a right-angle board-mounted part. [C362D]
1-2492104-0: positions: 10; mounting: surface-mount; coupling: ZIF with stuffer actuator; dimensions: 10.6 mm (Manufacturer connector length); dimensions: 2 mm (Manufacturer connector height); dimensions: 5.2 mm (Manufacturer connector width); dimensions: 0.3 mm (Accepted flex-cable thickness (not connector body)). Only 1-2492104-0; no family-wide generalization. [C362E]
Source-scoped identification facts
Each value retains its exact example, role and measurement axis. Facts from different parts must not be combined into an invented component.
Not recorded: Nominal contacts, Populated contacts, Contact rows, Keying / polarization, Shell / form, Recorded markings, View convention. Unknown fields stay unknown; illustrations supply no measurements or pin assignments.
Recorded variant and source limits
- Current product page says Circuit Identification Feature: Without. This negative statement is not counted as an observed physical marking.
- Retained dimensions context (excluded from normalized contact/body field): 0.3 mm / Accepted flex-cable thickness (not connector body). 1-2492104-0. Named primary-source example only. Identification facts do not certify mating, electrical compatibility, fabrication or powered use.

Specifications and limits
A boundary, not an omission to guess around.TE identifies part 1-2492104-0 as a 0.5 mm pitch, 10-position, right-angle ZIF FPC connector with a bottom-contact mating location. Bottom-contact is a defined part property, not a promise that any 0.5 mm ribbon fits safely.
Before connection or replacement
Find the exact manufacturer designation on the physical part or device bill of materials. Confirm the complete mating part number, termination, orientation and cable construction using the current maker drawing. Verify signals, cable assignment and system ratings from the exact equipment manual; do not energize an unverified assembly.
Evidence and engineering boundary
Manufacturers describe the series or named example, not a complete compatible harness, exact pin assignment, or electrical approval. No independent hardware, manufacturing drawing, license or device-specific test was performed. A physically similar housing or cable can have different retention, terminal geometry, wiring or ratings. Never infer an electrically safe assembly from the series name or pitch.
