Molex 0022011144 Rectangular Connector Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0022011144 is a 14-position receptacle housing for rectangular connectors with a 2.50mm pitch, designed for free-hanging in-line mounting applications. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system support and procurement planning. The housing accommodates crimp-terminated female socket contacts and features a locking ramp fastening mechanism. Substitute parts must maintain compatibility with the original connector interface specifications while meeting current availability and compliance requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0022011144 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Must be receptacle housing with female socket contacts
• Position Count: Must accommodate 14 positions
• Pitch Specification: Original pitch is 0.098" (2.50mm); substitute parts with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch represent a near-standard alternative within rectangular connector families
• Mounting & Termination: Must support free-hanging in-line mounting with crimp termination
• Fastening Mechanism: Must feature locking ramp fastening
• Compliance & Availability: Active product status with current RoHS certification and adequate inventory

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part 1-1375820-4 qualifies as a substitute based on matching connector type, contact configuration, position count, mounting style, termination method, and fastening type. The pitch variance (2.54mm vs. 2.50mm) represents a standard industry alternative within the rectangular connector category and is acceptable for applications where the mating connector accommodates this specification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1-1375820-4 is the designated substitute for the obsolete Molex 0022011144. Selection rationale is based on:

• Product Status Alignment: The substitute is active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• Compliance Certification: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, meeting environmental and moisture handling requirements
• Functional Equivalence: Matching connector type, contact configuration, position count, mounting method, termination style, and fastening mechanism ensure direct functional replacement
• Inventory Availability: The substitute maintains significantly higher stock levels (27,264 units vs. 880 units), supporting procurement reliability
• Pitch Consideration: The 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch represents a standard industry specification for 14-position rectangular connectors and is compatible with corresponding mating connectors in the CST-100 II series

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the primary difference between the Molex 0022011144 and the TE Connectivity 1-1375820-4?

A: The primary difference is pitch specification: 0.098" (2.50mm) versus 0.100" (2.54mm). Both housings are functionally equivalent receptacles with 14 positions, female socket contacts, crimp termination, and locking ramp fastening. The pitch variance is a standard industry alternative within rectangular connector families.

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 1-1375820-4 be used as a direct replacement in existing assemblies?

A: Compatibility depends on the mating connector specification. If the mating connector is designed for 2.54mm pitch, the TE Connectivity substitute is directly compatible. If the original assembly requires 2.50mm pitch, mechanical and electrical verification is necessary before implementation.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant and carry MSL Level 1 rating. The Molex part is RoHS3 compliant, while the TE Connectivity part is RoHS compliant. Both meet environmental and moisture sensitivity requirements for standard applications.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The Molex 0022011144 is obsolete, indicating discontinued production and limited future availability. The TE Connectivity 1-1375820-4 is active production, ensuring ongoing supply, technical support, and compliance updates throughout the component lifecycle.

Q: Are contacts included with these housings?

A: No. Both the Molex 0022011144 and TE Connectivity 1-1375820-4 are housings only. Crimp-terminated female socket contacts must be sourced separately and are compatible with both housing types based on pitch specification.
