Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0760604026 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type and gender (Receptacle, Female Sockets)
• Position count and matrix configuration (240 positions, 15 rows × 16 columns)
• Mounting style and orientation (Board Edge, Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Contact layout specification (80 Differential Pairs)
• Termination method (Press-Fit)
• Electrical ratings (30V, -55°C to 85°C operating range)
• Contact finish specification (Gold plating, 30.0µin thickness)
• Compliance certifications (UL94 V-0, ROHS3)

The Molex 0760605026 qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical alignment across all these parameters. The primary distinction is product status transition from Obsolete to Active, indicating continued manufacturing availability and supply chain viability.
