Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TE Connectivity 1703062-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Substitution Criteria:

• Identical connector type (Receptacle)
• Identical series designation (Universal MATE-N-LOK)
• Identical number of positions (2)
• Identical number of rows (2)
• Identical mounting type (Panel Mount, Snap-In)
• Identical contact termination method (Crimp)
• Identical fastening type (Locking Ramp)
• Identical insulation material (Polyamide PA66, Nylon 6/6)
• Identical operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C)
• Identical color (Natural)
• Equivalent or superior RoHS compliance status
• Equivalent or superior MSL rating

The substitute part 1-1703062-2 meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a direct equivalent within the Universal MATE-N-LOK series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part: 1703062-1

The 1703062-1 is an active product with RoHS3 compliance certification. This part is suitable for applications requiring the highest level of environmental compliance and is recommended as the first choice when available.

Substitute Part: 1-1703062-2

The 1-1703062-2 is functionally and mechanically equivalent to the primary part. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting method, termination type, and fastening mechanism. The substitute part carries RoHS compliance certification and maintains the same MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). The substitute part is available in higher inventory quantities (16,864 pieces versus 1,634 pieces for the primary part).

Selection between these parts should be based on availability, inventory requirements, and supply chain considerations. Both parts are active products from the same manufacturer and series, ensuring consistent performance and interchangeability within the Universal MATE-N-LOK connector ecosystem.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 1703062-1 and 1-1703062-2 fully interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in all critical electrical and mechanical parameters, including connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting type, contact termination method, fastening type, insulation material, and operating temperature range. They are direct equivalents within the Universal MATE-N-LOK series.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS3 Compliant and RoHS Compliant designations?

A: RoHS3 represents the most current version of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive. RoHS Compliant indicates compliance with RoHS requirements. Both designations confirm the parts meet hazardous substance restrictions. The 1703062-1 carries the RoHS3 designation, while the 1-1703062-2 carries the RoHS designation. Both are compliant with environmental standards.

Q: Do these connector housings include contacts?

A: No. Both the 1703062-1 and 1-1703062-2 are housings only. Contacts are not included and must be sourced separately. The housings are designed for use with crimp-terminated contacts compatible with the Universal MATE-N-LOK series.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited)?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates that the component has unlimited shelf life and does not require special moisture control during storage or handling. This simplifies inventory management and reduces storage requirements compared to components with higher MSL ratings.

Q: Can these receptacle housings be used with male or female contacts?

A: The connector type designation indicates these are receptacle housings. The contact type parameter specifies "Male or Female," indicating that the housing cavity configuration accommodates both male and female contact types depending on the specific application requirements and mating connector design.

Q: Are there any differences in the base product numbers?

A: Both parts share the same base product number 1703062. The primary part number 1703062-1 and the substitute part number 1-1703062-2 are variant designations within the same base product family, indicating they are part of the same product line with identical core specifications.

Q: What mounting applications are these housings suitable for?

A: These housings are designed for panel mount, snap-in applications. The snap-in mounting type allows for quick installation and removal from panel cutouts without requiring additional fasteners or tools.
