Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 0747548106 qualifies as a direct equivalent based on the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: SFP+ (identical)
• Connector Style: Cage (identical)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle (identical)
• Termination Method: Solder (identical)
• Features: EMI Shielded (identical)
• Series: 74754 (identical)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (identical)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (identical)

The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format and product status. The substitute transitions from tray packaging to bulk packaging and maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0747548106 is the designated manufacturer substitute for the obsolete 0747540106. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, mounting configuration, termination method, and EMI shielding characteristics. The substitute part maintains full ROHS3 compliance and identical moisture sensitivity classification.

Selection of the substitute part is supported by its active product status, ensuring long-term availability and manufacturing continuity. The transition from tray to bulk packaging does not affect component functionality or performance in solder through-hole applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 0747548106 be used as a direct replacement for the 0747540106 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are SFP+ cage connectors with identical mounting type (through hole, right angle), termination method (solder), and EMI shielding. All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between tray and bulk packaging?

A: Packaging format affects handling and storage but does not impact component performance or electrical characteristics. Tray packaging provides individual compartmentalization, while bulk packaging consolidates units. Selection depends on procurement and assembly workflow requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 0747540106 and 0747548106 are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical moisture sensitivity level classification (MSL 1, Unlimited).

Q: Why is the 0747540106 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer in active production. The manufacturer recommends transitioning to the 0747548106, which maintains identical specifications and active product status.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when switching from the main part to the substitute?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. The parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters, including connector type, mounting configuration, and shielding characteristics.
