Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0887642000 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type Conversion: Input must be DVI-D Dual Link Receptacle; output must be HDMI Plug
• Mounting Configuration: Must be Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Electrical Compatibility: Both parts must support the same signal conversion standard
• Physical Form Factor: Adapter geometry and connector alignment must be equivalent

The Assmann WSW Components AB556 meets all substitution criteria, providing functional equivalence across these parameters while offering improved product status and compliance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Assmann WSW Components AB556 is the direct functional substitute for the obsolete Molex 0887642000. Selection of the AB556 is supported by:

• Product Status: Active manufacturing status ensures long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance meets current environmental and safety standards, whereas the original part is RoHS non-compliant
• Electrical Equivalence: Identical connector type conversion (DVI-D Dual Link Receptacle to HDMI Plug) and MSL rating
• Form Factor Match: Identical free-hanging (in-line) mounting configuration ensures mechanical compatibility in existing installations
• Trade Classification: Matching HTSUS and ECCN codes confirm equivalent regulatory classification

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Assmann WSW AB556 directly replace the Molex 0887642000 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both parts provide identical DVI-D Dual Link Receptacle to HDMI Plug conversion with matching free-hanging (in-line) mounting configuration and MSL rating. The AB556 is mechanically and electrically equivalent.

Q: What is the primary advantage of switching to the AB556?

A: The AB556 is an active product with ROHS3 compliance, whereas the Molex 0887642000 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. This ensures regulatory alignment and supply chain availability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The Molex 0887642000 packaging specification is not provided. The Assmann WSW AB556 is supplied in Bulk packaging.

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences?

A: No. Both parts perform identical signal conversion from DVI-D Dual Link Receptacle to HDMI Plug with equivalent electrical specifications.
