TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 111623-5 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 111623-5 is a 24 Position Rectangular Receptacle Connector designed for IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination with 28 AWG ribbon cable. This connector features gold-plated contacts, a polarizing key, and feed-through capability in the AMP-Latch series. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute components necessary for ongoing procurement and system maintenance. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications to ensure direct compatibility in existing applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 111623-5 is based on strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part 2-111623-7 qualifies as a direct equivalent because it maintains identical specifications in the following key areas:

• Connector type, contact type, and gender (Receptacle, Female Socket)
• Position count and pitch geometry (24 positions, 0.079" pitch, 2-row configuration)
• Cable termination method and wire gauge compatibility (IDC, 28 AWG ribbon cable)
• Contact material and finish specifications (Gold, 30.0µin thickness)
• Functional features (Feed Through, Polarizing Key)
• Mounting configuration (Free Hanging In-Line)
• Series designation (AMP-Latch)

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and compliance certification. The substitute part 2-111623-7 is active and RoHS3 compliant, whereas the original 111623-5 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The substitute part 2-111623-7 provides direct functional and mechanical equivalence to the obsolete 111623-5. Selection of the substitute is supported by the following factors:

Product Status: The original 111623-5 is classified as obsolete, limiting long-term availability. The substitute 2-111623-7 maintains active product status, ensuring continued procurement capability.

Compliance Certification: The substitute 2-111623-7 is RoHS3 compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components in many jurisdictions. The original part is RoHS non-compliant, which may restrict its use in new designs or applications subject to RoHS regulations.

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility: All critical parameters are identical between the two parts, including connector geometry, contact specifications, termination method, and wire gauge compatibility. No design modifications are required for substitution.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute is supplied in bulk packaging, which may differ from the original part's packaging specification. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2-111623-7 be used as a direct replacement for the 111623-5 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The 2-111623-7 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 111623-5. All connector specifications, including position count, pitch, contact type, termination method, and wire gauge compatibility, are identical. No circuit modifications or mechanical redesign is required.

Q: What is the primary reason for substituting the 111623-5?

A: The 111623-5 is classified as obsolete, which restricts future availability. The 2-111623-7 is an active product from the same manufacturer and series, ensuring continued supply and support.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 2-111623-7 is RoHS3 compliant, while the 111623-5 is RoHS non-compliant. If your application or market requires RoHS compliance, the substitute part meets this requirement.

Q: Do these connectors support the same ribbon cable specifications?

A: Yes. Both parts are designed for IDC termination with 28 AWG ribbon cable. The contact finish, pitch, and row spacing are identical, ensuring compatibility with the same cable assemblies.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The original 111623-5 packaging is not specified in the available data. The substitute 2-111623-7 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Are the contact finish specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts feature gold-plated contacts with a finish thickness of 30.0µin (0.76µm), ensuring equivalent electrical performance and corrosion resistance.

Q: Can the 111623-5 and 2-111623-7 be used interchangeably in the same connector assembly?

A: Yes. Both parts are receptacle connectors in the AMP-Latch series with identical mechanical and electrical specifications. They are fully interchangeable in applications designed for either part number.
