Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 0559320214 is based on alignment within the MicroClasp 55932 connector series. The substitute part 0559320210 shares the same base product number (055932), connector category, and pitch specification (2.0mm). Both components are rectangular connectors designed for board-to-cable/wire interconnection.

The primary substitution criterion is series compatibility combined with pitch matching (0.079" / 2.00mm). The substitute part maintains the same connector type classification and mounting methodology while transitioning from obsolete to active product status.

Key parameters determining substitution eligibility:

  • Base Product Number: 055932
  • Pitch - Mating: 0.079" (2.00mm)
  • Connector Category: Rectangular Connectors
  • Style: Board to Cable/Wire
  • Number of Positions: 2
