TE Connectivity 1-102387-4 Rectangular Connector Housing – Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 1-102387-4 is an 8-position rectangular connector receptacle housing designed for 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch applications. This component is part of the AMPMODU Mod IV series and serves as a housing for female socket contacts in free-hanging, in-line configurations. The part is currently active in production status.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent rectangular connector housings share identical or compatible electrical and mechanical parameters, including connector type, contact configuration, pitch, row spacing, mounting style, and termination method. Substitutes become necessary when the primary part experiences supply constraints, when alternative manufacturers offer improved lead times, or when design flexibility permits selection from multiple qualified sources.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity 104483-1: This substitute is manufactured by TE Connectivity, the same original equipment manufacturer as the primary part. The 104483-1 maintains full parametric equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. The operating temperature range extends to 125°C, providing enhanced thermal capability compared to the 1-102387-4. Both parts carry RoHS compliance certification and EAR99 ECCN classification. The 104483-1 is currently in active production status with higher inventory availability (1500 units in stock).

Amphenol ICC 69176-008LF: This substitute represents a cross-manufacturer alternative from Amphenol ICC (FCI), part of the Mini-PV™ and Basics+ series. The 69176-008LF meets all critical parametric requirements for direct substitution, with insulation material specified as modified polyphenylene rather than standard thermoplastic. The operating temperature range is -40°C to 105°C, matching the lower temperature limit of the primary part. This part carries RoHS compliance certification, EAR99 ECCN classification, and REACH affected status. The 69176-008LF is in active production with 1299 units currently in stock.

Selection between these substitutes depends on application-specific requirements. The TE Connectivity 104483-1 is preferred for applications requiring extended high-temperature operation. The Amphenol ICC 69176-008LF is suitable for applications where cross-manufacturer sourcing is acceptable and where the modified polyphenylene insulation material meets design specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 104483-1 be used as a direct replacement for the 1-102387-4?

A: Yes. Both parts are 8-position rectangular connector receptacle housings with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, 2-row configuration, female socket contacts, crimp termination, and polarizing key features. All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are equivalent. The 104483-1 operates across a wider temperature range (-65°C to 125°C versus -65°C to 105°C).

Q: What is the difference between the 1-102387-4 and the 69176-008LF?

A: Both parts share identical connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting style, and termination method. The primary differences are manufacturer (TE Connectivity versus Amphenol ICC), series designation (AMPMODU Mod IV versus Mini-PV™/Basics+), and insulation material (thermoplastic versus modified polyphenylene). The 69176-008LF operates at a lower minimum temperature (-40°C versus -65°C).

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All three parts—1-102387-4, 104483-1, and 69176-008LF—are housings only. Contacts are not included and must be sourced separately. Ensure that selected contacts are compatible with crimp termination and 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch specifications.

Q: What does the polarizing key feature accomplish?

A: The polarizing key is a mechanical feature that prevents incorrect mating orientation between the connector housing and its corresponding plug. This ensures proper alignment and contact engagement during assembly.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 1-102387-4 is ROHS3 compliant. The 104483-1 and 69176-008LF are both RoHS compliant. All three parts meet RoHS requirements for restricted substance elimination.

Q: What is the MSL rating, and why does it matter?

A: All three parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating unlimited shelf life without moisture absorption concerns. This classification means these components do not require special moisture-controlled storage or handling procedures prior to assembly.

Q: Can these parts be used in applications requiring extended high-temperature operation?

A: The TE Connectivity 104483-1 supports operation up to 125°C, making it suitable for higher-temperature applications. The 1-102387-4 and 69176-008LF are rated to 105°C and should be selected for applications within this temperature range.

Q: What is the ECCN classification, and does it affect procurement?

A: All three parts are classified as EAR99 under the Export Administration Regulations. This classification indicates general commercial items with minimal export control restrictions. The 69176-008LF carries additional REACH affected status, indicating compliance with European chemical substance regulations.
