TE Connectivity ASE4204 4PDT Slide Switch, Through Hole, Vertical

The TE Connectivity ASE4204 4PDT Slide Switch is a through hole slide switch with a 4PDT contact configuration and a maximum contact current of 300mA.

Overview

The ASE4204 is a 4-pole double-throw slide switch with a vertical mounting orientation and an extended top actuator. This layout suits applications where space is limited and the actuator must remain easily accessible. The auto insertion switch style supports automated assembly processes and ensures compatibility with standard IC equipment.

Construction and Materials

The switch features copper alloy contacts and silver-plated terminals, which support electrical conductivity. The natural nylon actuator provides mechanical performance, while bifurcated double-wipe contacts are included to enhance contact reliability. These construction details make the switch suitable for telecom-grade switching applications.

Electrical Performance

The ASE4204 offers the following electrical ratings:

• Insulation resistance: 1000MΩ
• Dielectric strength: 600V
• Contact current max: 300mA
• Contact voltage AC max: 115V
• Contact voltage DC max: 20V
• Electrical endurance: 10,000 operations

Safety and Compliance

The switch carries a UL94V-0 flammability rating. Its insulation resistance and dielectric strength support reliable electrical isolation, and its rated electrical endurance supports use in both industrial and communications networking environments.

Physical Details

The switch measures 43 mm in height and 33 mm in width, and weighs 1.001 grams. It is a through hole type component. Choose the TE Connectivity ASE4204 4PDT Slide Switch when a compact, vertically oriented four-pole double-throw switch with an extended top actuator is required for space-constrained designs.
