Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1654772 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Series Compatibility: Both parts must belong to the PLUSCON VS series to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing RJ45 receptacle interfaces.
• Port Configuration: Single port (1 port) requirement must be maintained for form factor and mounting consistency.
• Port Direction: Straight port orientation is required for proper alignment in modular frame assemblies.
• Environmental Rating: IP67 protection rating must be preserved for sealed connector applications.
• Material Specification: Plastic construction with UL94 V-0 flammability rating ensures equivalent thermal and mechanical performance.
• Dimensional Compatibility: Length, width, and depth specifications must match exactly (36.00mm × 36.00mm × 16.35mm) for mounting slot compatibility.
• RoHS Compliance: Both parts must meet RoHS requirements for regulatory alignment.

The Phoenix Contact 1689844 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. The primary difference is color designation (Gray vs. Black) and product status (Active vs. Obsolete), neither of which affects functional or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1689844 is a functionally equivalent substitute for the obsolete 1654772 model. Both components maintain identical mechanical dimensions, port configuration, and environmental protection ratings required for PLUSCON VS series RJ45 receptacle integration.

The 1689844 offers the advantage of Active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support. The ROHS3 compliance designation on the 1689844 represents an updated regulatory classification while maintaining full RoHS compliance requirements.

Color differentiation (Gray vs. Black) is the only functional distinction between these parts. Selection between them should be based on system aesthetic requirements or existing color-coding standards within the application. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability specifications and identical dimensional tolerances.

For applications where the original Black color specification is critical, the 1689844 Gray variant remains mechanically and electrically interchangeable. The Active status of the 1689844 makes it the recommended selection for new designs and ongoing maintenance applications requiring the PLUSCON VS 1-port modular frame configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1689844 Gray frame be used as a direct replacement for the 1654772 Black frame?

A: Yes. The 1689844 is mechanically and electrically equivalent to the 1654772. Both components share identical port configuration, dimensions, material specifications, and IP67 environmental protection. The only difference is color designation.

Q: What makes these parts substitutable?

A: Substitutability is based on matching critical parameters: PLUSCON VS series membership, single-port configuration, straight port orientation, identical dimensions (36.00mm × 36.00mm × 16.35mm), UL94 V-0 plastic material, IP67 rating, and RoHS compliance. All these parameters are identical between the two parts.

Q: Why is the 1654772 listed as Obsolete?

A: Product status reflects manufacturer lifecycle decisions. The 1689844 Active status indicates Phoenix Contact continues to support this design variant, making it the preferred selection for ongoing applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1654772 packaging information is not specified in available data. The 1689844 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format should be confirmed with the supplier based on application requirements.

Q: Does the color difference affect connector performance?

A: No. Color is a cosmetic designation only. Both Black and Gray variants use identical UL94 V-0 plastic material with equivalent thermal and mechanical properties. Functional performance in RJ45 receptacle applications is identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 1654772 is RoHS Compliant, and the 1689844 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet RoHS regulatory requirements. ROHS3 represents an updated compliance classification.

Q: What is the MSL rating for these components?

A: Both parts carry MSL Rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
