Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Molex 0430201411 are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter alignment. The following criteria determine substitutability:

Critical Parameters for Substitution:

• Connector type (Plug)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (14)
• Pitch specification (0.118" / 3.00mm)
• Row configuration (2 rows with 0.118" spacing)
• Mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line)
• Contact termination method (Crimp)
• Fastening mechanism (Locking Ramp)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C minimum)
• Color (Black)

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10127717-14LF meets all these parameters and qualifies as a parametric equivalent. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical interfaces, enabling direct substitution in applications designed for the Molex 0430201411.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0430201411 and Amphenol ICC 10127717-14LF are active products with full regulatory compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Compliance Status: Both parts meet RoHS requirements and carry MSL Level 1 rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling.

Product Availability: The Amphenol ICC 10127717-14LF offers higher current inventory (3670 pcs) compared to the Molex part (1069 pcs), providing supply chain advantages for high-volume procurement.

Material Specification: The Amphenol ICC part specifies PA66 (Nylon 6/6) insulation material, which is a refined polyamide variant offering enhanced thermal and chemical resistance compared to general polyamide. This represents a material upgrade while maintaining full electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Packaging Consideration: The Molex part is supplied in bulk packaging, while the Amphenol ICC part is supplied in bag packaging. Procurement and inventory management processes should account for this packaging difference.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol ICC 10127717-14LF directly replace the Molex 0430201411 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 14-position plug configuration, 3.00mm pitch, 2-row layout, crimp termination, and locking ramp fastening. Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: Are there differences in contact compatibility between these two connector housings?

A: No. Both housings accept the same crimp contact specifications due to identical pitch, row spacing, and contact termination methods. Contacts designed for one housing are compatible with the other.

Q: What is the significance of the PA66 material specification in the Amphenol ICC part?

A: PA66 (Nylon 6/6) is a polyamide variant with enhanced thermal stability and chemical resistance compared to general polyamide. This material upgrade does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility and provides improved performance characteristics in demanding thermal environments.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory and compliance standards?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant and carry MSL Level 1 rating. The Amphenol ICC part additionally carries REACH Affected status. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C) and support glow wire compliance requirements.

Q: What packaging differences should be considered for procurement?

A: The Molex 0430201411 is supplied in bulk packaging, while the Amphenol ICC 10127717-14LF is supplied in bag packaging. Procurement quantity planning and inventory management should account for these different packaging formats.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these connector housings?

A: No performance differences exist. Both housings meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection should be based on supply availability, inventory levels, and procurement cost optimization.
