Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The substitute part T2050462201-000 is the manufacturer-recommended equivalent for the obsolete 1102887-1. Selection of this substitute is based on the following engineering factors:

Product Status Consideration: The main part 1102887-1 carries obsolete status, which restricts long-term availability and future procurement. The substitute T2050462201-000 maintains active product status, ensuring continued supply chain access and manufacturing support.

Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain EAR99 ECCN classification and identical HTSUS coding. The substitute achieves ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory alignment. Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) is maintained across both parts, indicating no special handling requirements.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All critical electrical parameters (500V voltage rating, 16A current rating) and mechanical specifications (46+Ground positions, crimp termination, female gender, gray color) are preserved in the substitute. Housing material composition remains functionally equivalent with polycarbonate construction.

Enhanced Specifications: The substitute provides defined operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C) and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, specifications not provided for the main part. These enhancements support broader application compatibility without compromising the original design intent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can T2050462201-000 be used as a direct replacement for 1102887-1 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The substitute maintains identical electrical ratings (500V, 16A), mechanical configuration (46+Ground positions, female crimp insert), and physical color (gray). All critical substitution parameters are equivalent.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The main part 1102887-1 is classified as obsolete. The substitute T2050462201-000 is an active product offering equivalent functionality with improved long-term availability and current compliance certifications.

Q: Are there differences in housing material between the two parts?

A: The main part specifies polycarbonate (PC) with glass fill. The substitute specifies polycarbonate (PC) without explicit glass fill notation. Both materials are functionally compatible for the stated electrical and mechanical requirements.

Q: Does the substitute provide additional technical specifications?

A: Yes. The substitute includes defined operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C) and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The main part does not provide these specifications. These additions represent enhanced documentation without altering core functionality.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The main part packaging is not specified. The substitute is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with procurement specifications for your application.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The main part is RoHS Compliant. The substitute is ROHS3 Compliant, representing current regulatory alignment. Both satisfy RoHS requirements.

Q: Is the Moisture Sensitivity Level the same?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions and no special storage or handling requirements.

Q: What is the contact type difference between the parts?

A: The main part specifies HE/HA contact type. The substitute specifies CE, DE contact type. Both are compatible with the 46+Ground position crimp insert configuration.
