Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 1489962-3 is determined by strict alignment across the following critical parameters:

Substitution Criteria:

• Connector Type: SFP Cage
• Connector Style: Cage
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
• Termination Method: Solder
• Features: EMI Shielded
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• ECCN Classification: EAR99

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria. The primary distinction between the main part and substitutes is product status: the 1489962-3 is obsolete, while substitute parts maintain active production status. Packaging format and inventory availability differ but do not affect functional or electrical compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 2227303-2 (Direct Substitute)

The 2227303-2 is the primary substitute for the obsolete 1489962-3. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and share identical functional specifications. The 2227303-2 maintains active product status with confirmed inventory availability. This part is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging and carries the same ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 ECCN classification as the original part.

Molex 0747370010 (Cross-Manufacturer Substitute)

The 0747370010 provides a cross-manufacturer alternative from Molex. This connector meets all functional and compliance requirements equivalent to the 1489962-3. The 0747370010 is actively produced and available in Tray packaging. REACH status differs (REACH Unaffected versus Vendor Undefined), and HTSUS classification differs, but electrical and mechanical specifications remain fully compatible.

Selection between these substitutes depends on supply chain preferences, packaging requirements, and procurement specifications. Both parts satisfy the core functional and compliance parameters of the original 1489962-3.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2227303-2 directly replace the 1489962-3 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 2227303-2 meets all functional, electrical, and mechanical specifications of the 1489962-3. Both connectors are SFP Cage type with solder through-hole right-angle mounting, EMI shielding, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. The primary difference is product status: 1489962-3 is obsolete while 2227303-2 is active production.

Q: What is the difference between the TE Connectivity and Molex substitutes?

A: Both the 2227303-2 (TE Connectivity) and 0747370010 (Molex) meet identical functional specifications for SFP Cage connector type, mounting configuration, termination method, and compliance requirements. The differences are manufacturer origin, packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tray), and REACH/HTSUS classifications. Electrical and mechanical compatibility with the 1489962-3 is equivalent.

Q: Does packaging format affect connector compatibility?

A: Packaging format (Cut Tape, Tray, or unspecified) does not affect connector functionality or electrical performance. Packaging selection impacts handling, storage, and procurement logistics. The 2227303-2 is supplied in Cut Tape format while the 0747370010 is supplied in Tray format. Component selection should account for assembly line requirements and inventory management procedures.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: All three parts (1489962-3, 2227303-2, and 0747370010) are ROHS3 compliant and carry EAR99 ECCN classification. Moisture Sensitivity Level is 1 (Unlimited) for all parts. The 0747370010 has REACH Unaffected status while the other parts list REACH status as Vendor Undefined. These differences do not affect functional compatibility or core compliance requirements.

Q: Why is the 1489962-3 listed as obsolete?

A: The 1489962-3 is classified as obsolete, indicating it is no longer in active production. The 2227303-2 serves as the direct replacement from the same manufacturer, offering identical specifications with continued availability and support.
