Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict adherence to the following parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Connector Type: HDMI Receptacle
• Number of Contacts: 19 positions
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, Right Angle; Through Hole
• Mounting Feature: Flange, Horizontal
• Termination: Solder
• Gender: Receptacle
• Shielding: Shielded
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Insulation Color: Black
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant or equivalent
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Current Rating: 0.5A minimum
• Voltage Rating: 40V minimum
• Operating Temperature Range: Must encompass or match -20°C to 85°C

All substitute parts listed meet these core parameters. Variations in HDMI specification version (1.4 vs. 2.1), shell material composition, and mating cycle ratings represent functional enhancements or design variations that do not preclude substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Molex Series 208658): Parts 2086581002, 2086581052, 2086581102, and 2086588121 are all Molex HDMI 2.1 receptacle connectors from the same product series. These parts maintain identical electrical specifications to the original 0471518021, feature active product status, and carry ROHS3 compliance. The HDMI 2.1 specification represents a forward-compatible enhancement over the original part. These substitutes are recommended for new designs and production continuity.

Secondary Substitutes (Alternative Manufacturers): The Amphenol ICC 10029449-002TLF, Würth Elektronik 685119135725, and Stewart Connector SS-53000-002 meet all core substitution criteria. These parts are active products with appropriate certifications. The Amphenol and Stewart parts support HDMI 1.4 specification with documented mating cycle ratings of 10000 cycles. The Würth part extends the operating temperature range to -25°C to 85°C.

TE Connectivity Alternative: Part 1-1747981-4 includes panel mount capability in addition to surface mount and through-hole options. Operating temperature range is -25°C to 70°C, which is narrower than the original part. This part is suitable for applications where the reduced upper temperature limit is acceptable.

Compliance Considerations: All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance or equivalent RoHS certification. Moisture sensitivity level remains at MSL 1 (Unlimited) across all options. ECCN and HTSUS classifications are consistent across all parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use HDMI 2.1 connectors as substitutes for the original HDMI standard connector? A: Yes. HDMI 2.1 connectors are backward compatible with HDMI 1.4 and standard HDMI applications. The 2.1 specification represents an enhanced version that supports higher bandwidth while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility with earlier standards.

Q: What is the difference between the Molex 208658 series parts (2086581002, 2086581052, 2086581102, 2086588121)? A: All four parts are HDMI 2.1 receptacle connectors with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. They differ in contact finish variations or internal design refinements. All are suitable substitutes for the original 0471518021.

Q: Does the shell material (Copper Alloy vs. Brass vs. Steel) affect substitution compatibility? A: Shell material does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Material selection impacts shielding effectiveness and mechanical durability. Brass and steel shells provide equivalent performance to copper alloy in standard applications.

Q: Is the TE Connectivity 1-1747981-4 suitable for my application? A: The TE part is suitable if your operating temperature range does not exceed 70°C. The original 0471518021 operates to 85°C. If your application requires operation above 70°C, select an alternative substitute that maintains the full -20°C to 85°C range.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for moisture sensitivity? A: MSL 1 indicates the component has unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions. No special moisture control measures are required during storage or handling prior to assembly.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance or equivalent RoHS certification, meeting regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: Can I mix different substitute parts in the same assembly? A: Yes. All substitute parts meet identical core electrical and mechanical specifications, allowing interchangeability within a single assembly or production run.
