Both components maintain identical functional specifications for LC duplex singlemode fiber optic coupling applications. The substitute part carries active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.
Both parts satisfy ROHS3 and REACH compliance requirements. The substitute part provides additional documentation through UL94 V-0 material flammability certification and specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. The mounting configuration of the substitute includes snap-in capability in addition to the standard flange mounting, providing installation flexibility.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the 1061271350 directly replace the 1061451500 in existing installations?
A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical LC receptacle duplex singlemode coupler specifications, housing materials, ferrule composition, and core features. The mounting interface remains compatible with panel flange configurations.
Q: What is the difference in mounting between these two parts?
A: The original 1061451500 uses panel mount flange with two mounting holes. The substitute 1061271350 retains this flange mounting while adding snap-in capability, providing additional installation options without compromising the standard flange interface.
Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?
A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The substitute part includes UL94 V-0 material flammability certification and specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, whereas the original part does not document these parameters.
Q: Why is the original part obsolete?
A: The 1061451500 has been superseded by the 1061271350 in the Molex product line. The substitute maintains all functional requirements while offering active product status and enhanced documentation.
Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?
A: The 1061271350 is supplied in bulk packaging.
