Phoenix Contact 1419731 D-Sub Connector: Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1419731 is a 15-position two-piece backshell D-Sub connector with 180° cable exit and shielded construction. This component is classified as Obsolete and is no longer in active production. The part was designed for applications requiring shielded D-Sub connectivity with round cable termination and IP20 environmental protection.

Due to its obsolete status, sourcing new inventory from original manufacturing channels is restricted. Identifying functionally equivalent active-production alternatives is necessary to maintain system compatibility and ensure long-term component availability for repair, maintenance, and new assembly applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1419731 is based on strict equivalence across all critical mechanical and electrical parameters. The following parameters must match identically for a part to function as a direct substitute:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 15
• Compatible Shell Size: A
• Compatible D-Sub Size: 15pos and HD26pos
• Cable Exit Angle: 180°
• Shielding: Shielded
• Accessory Type: Two Piece Backshell
• Cable Type: Round

Important Matching Parameters:

• IP20 environmental rating
• Plastic (ABS) primary material construction
• RoHS compliance status

The Phoenix Contact 1419710 satisfies all critical and important parameters, making it a direct functional equivalent. The primary distinction is product status: the 1419710 is Active and currently in production, whereas the 1419731 is Obsolete.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: Phoenix Contact 1419710

The 1419710 is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 1419731. Selection of this substitute is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Alignment: The 1419710 holds Active product status with current manufacturing and distribution support. This ensures long-term availability for procurement, repair operations, and new assembly integration.

Compliance and Certification: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance. The 1419710 carries ROHS3 Compliant certification, representing the current regulatory standard. The 1419710 is also REACH Affected and classified under ECCN EAR99, providing full regulatory documentation for international applications.

Mechanical and Electrical Equivalence: All critical parameters—position count, shell size, D-Sub compatibility, cable exit angle, shielding, backshell configuration, and cable type—are identical between the two parts. The 1419710 includes additional strain relief hardware, which enhances mechanical robustness without affecting electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Material and Construction: Both parts utilize ABS plastic construction. The 1419710 specifies metal plating and includes mating screws (4-40), providing enhanced durability and assembly consistency compared to the original part.

Inventory Availability: The 1419710 maintains higher current inventory levels (1040 pcs) compared to the 1419731 (795 pcs), supporting immediate procurement for production and maintenance applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1419710 be used as a direct replacement for the 1419731 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The 1419710 is mechanically and electrically equivalent across all critical parameters. It maintains identical position count (15), shell size (A), D-Sub compatibility (15pos and HD26pos), cable exit angle (180°), shielding, and backshell configuration. No design modifications are required.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The 1419731 is Obsolete; the 1419710 is Active. The 1419710 includes additional strain relief hardware and updated RoHS3 compliance certification. Both parts are functionally identical for D-Sub connector applications.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with the color difference (Black/Silver vs. Silver)?

A: No. Color is a cosmetic parameter and does not affect electrical or mechanical function. The 1419710 is available in Silver, which is compatible with all standard D-Sub connector systems.

Q: Does the 1419710 include all necessary assembly hardware?

A: Yes. The 1419710 includes assembly hardware, cable clamp, and strain relief. These components support complete connector assembly without additional procurement.

Q: What is the significance of the 4-40 mating screws specified for the 1419710?

A: The 4-40 mating screws are standard fastening hardware for D-Sub connectors in this size class. They ensure secure mating between the backshell and D-Sub connector body. This specification is compatible with standard D-Sub connector systems.

Q: Is the 1419710 suitable for applications requiring IP20 environmental protection?

A: Yes. The 1419710 maintains IP20 rating, identical to the 1419731. This rating provides protection against solid objects greater than 12.5 mm and water spray at angles up to 15° from vertical.

Q: What is the packaging format for the 1419710?

A: The 1419710 is supplied in Bulk packaging, suitable for production assembly and inventory management.

Q: Are there any regulatory or compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The 1419710 carries current ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected certifications, representing current regulatory standards. The 1419731 carries RoHS Compliant status. Both parts meet applicable environmental and safety requirements for their respective production periods.
