Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 0015921450 is based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Position Count: Both main and substitute parts must be 50-position receptacles
• Electrical Configuration: 2-row arrangement maintained across all alternatives
• Mounting & Termination: Through-hole solder termination required for PCB integration
• Contact System: Outer shroud contacts with gold plating for signal integrity
• Mechanical Features: Board guide and board lock functionality must be present
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance and MSL rating of 1 required

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1734101-5 meets all substitution criteria as a functionally equivalent 50-position D-Sub receptacle with identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 1734101-5 is the direct functional equivalent for the discontinued Molex 0015921450. Both connectors share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 50-position configuration, 2-row arrangement, through-hole solder termination, outer shroud contact design, and gold plating.

The TE Connectivity part maintains active product status with higher inventory availability (2010 units versus 830 units), ensuring supply chain continuity. Both parts meet equivalent environmental compliance standards with RoHS certification and MSL rating of 1.

Selection of the TE Connectivity 1734101-5 as a substitute requires no design modifications to existing PCB layouts or connector mating interfaces, as mechanical and electrical compatibility is maintained across all specified parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 1734101-5 be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0015921450?

A: Yes. Both connectors are 50-position D-Sub receptacles with identical through-hole solder termination, outer shroud contact design, board guide and board lock features, and gold-plated contacts. No design changes are required for substitution.

Q: What are the key compatibility factors for D-Sub 50-position receptacle substitution?

A: Critical parameters include connector type (receptacle), position count (50), row configuration (2), mounting method (through-hole), termination type (solder), contact style (outer shroud), contact finish (gold), and mechanical features (board guide, board lock). All must match between main and substitute parts.

Q: Does the TE Connectivity part meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Yes. The TE Connectivity 1734101-5 is RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), matching the environmental and regulatory compliance of the Molex 0015921450.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these connectors?

A: The TE Connectivity 1734101-5 is supplied in tube packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility for PCB integration.

Q: What is the availability status of each connector?

A: The Molex 0015921450 is discontinued at DiGi Electronics with 830 units in stock. The TE Connectivity 1734101-5 maintains active product status with 2010 units available, providing improved supply chain reliability.
