TE Connectivity 1586703-1 Rectangular Connector Plug Housing Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 1586703-1 is a 2-position rectangular connector plug housing from the Universal MATE-N-LOK series. This component is classified as a rectangular connector housing designed for free-hanging, in-line mounting applications with crimp contact termination and latch holder fastening. The part is currently active in production status and RoHS compliant.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent rectangular connector housings share the same functional specifications: 2-position configuration, plug connector type, single-row arrangement, free-hanging mounting, crimp termination, and latch holder fastening within the MATE-N-LOK series. Alternative part numbers become necessary when the primary part number experiences inventory constraints, supply chain disruptions, or when design revisions require updated base product numbers while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TE Connectivity 1586703-1 are qualified based on strict parametric equivalence within the following criteria:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector category: Rectangular Connectors
• Series: Universal MATE-N-LOK
• Connector type: Plug
• Number of positions: 2
• Number of rows: 1
• Mounting type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact termination: Crimp
• Fastening type: Latch Holder
• Contact type: Male or Female
• RoHS compliance: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)
• Product status: Active

The substitute parts 1-1703061-2 and 1703061-1 meet all mandatory matching parameters and are therefore classified as parametric equivalents. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and function as direct substitutes within the MATE-N-LOK rectangular connector housing family. Differences in insulation material composition and operating temperature ranges do not disqualify substitution eligibility, as these parameters were not specified in the main part definition.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—1586703-1, 1-1703061-2, and 1703061-1—are active products manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and carry RoHS compliance certification. Selection between these parts should be based on the following engineering considerations:

Primary Part (1586703-1): This is the original specification part number. Use this part number when design documentation, schematics, or bill of materials explicitly reference 1586703-1.

Substitute 1-1703061-2: This part offers the highest operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C) and is based on the updated 1703061 base product number. This substitute is suitable when thermal performance requirements exceed -55°C to 105°C specifications. Inventory availability is significantly higher at 52,033 pieces.

Substitute 1703061-1: This part is based on the 1703061 base product number with a lower operating temperature ceiling (-55°C to 105°C). This substitute is suitable for applications where the lower temperature range is acceptable. Inventory availability is 1,333 pieces.

All three parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications for the 2-position MATE-N-LOK rectangular connector housing configuration. Selection should prioritize design requirements, thermal operating conditions, and supply chain availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1-1703061-2 and 1703061-1 be used interchangeably with 1586703-1?

A: Yes, both substitute parts are parametric equivalents. They share identical connector type, position count, mounting configuration, termination method, and fastening mechanism. All three parts are RoHS compliant and carry MSL 1 rating. Substitution is valid from an electrical and mechanical interface perspective.

Q: What is the difference between 1-1703061-2 and 1703061-1?

A: The primary differences are insulation material composition and operating temperature range. Part 1-1703061-2 uses Polyamide PA66 (Nylon 6/6) with an operating range of -55°C to 125°C. Part 1703061-1 uses Polyamide PA6 (Nylon 6) with an operating range of -55°C to 105°C. Both are functionally equivalent for the connector housing interface.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All three parts are connector housings only. Contacts are not included and must be sourced separately. Ensure that selected contacts are compatible with the MATE-N-LOK series and the 2-position housing configuration.

Q: What is the significance of the base product number change from 1586703 to 1703061?

A: The base product number change indicates a product line update or revision by TE Connectivity. Both base product families (1586703 and 1703061) are active and produce equivalent 2-position MATE-N-LOK plug housings. The change does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for high-temperature applications?

A: Part 1-1703061-2 supports operating temperatures up to 125°C, compared to 105°C for 1703061-1. For applications requiring operation above 105°C, 1-1703061-2 is the appropriate selection.

Q: Is REACH compliance information available for all parts?

A: REACH status is specified as "REACH Unaffected" for 1586703-1 and 1703061-1. For 1-1703061-2, REACH status is listed as "Vendor Undefined." Consult TE Connectivity documentation for complete REACH compliance details when required for specific regulatory applications.

Q: What packaging format is used for these connector housings?

A: All three parts are supplied in bulk packaging. Specific unit quantities per package are not detailed in the provided specifications.
