Phoenix Contact 1714899 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1714899 is a 68-position receptacle connector with 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch, designed for surface mount applications in board-to-board or cable interconnect configurations. This connector features gold-plated mating contacts, push-pull fastening, and operates across -55°C to 125°C. The part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for new designs and ongoing production support.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1714899 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle with female socket contacts
• Position Count & Pitch: 68 positions at 0.050" (1.27mm) mating pitch with 2-row configuration
• Mounting & Termination: Surface mount with solder termination
• Electrical & Environmental Compliance: Gold mating contact finish, push-pull fastening, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating
• Operating Range: -55°C to 125°C temperature specification

All identified substitutes meet these core requirements. Variations in current rating, contact material composition, and insulation material type do not preclude substitution when the primary functional and environmental parameters align.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Substitute - Phoenix Contact 1374034: This part is the primary recommended substitute. It is manufactured by Phoenix Contact, maintains active product status, and matches all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The higher current rating of 2.2A provides additional margin over the original 1.4A specification. Tape & Reel packaging supports automated assembly processes.

Cross-Manufacturer Substitute - HARTING 15210682601000: This har-flex® series connector from HARTING meets all functional requirements and is actively supported. The part features enhanced mated stacking height range (8mm ~ 11mm) and includes pick-and-place optimization. Cut Tape packaging is available for lower-volume applications.

Cross-Manufacturer Substitute - Adam Tech ESMC-F-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R: The ESMC series from Adam Tech provides an alternative with active product status. This connector uses phosphor bronze contacts with flash gold finish and supports three mated stacking heights (8mm, 9.5mm, 11.1mm). Current rating is 1.2A. Tape & Reel packaging is standard.

All three substitutes carry ROHS3 compliance, UL94 V-0 flammability certification, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring compatibility with existing design and manufacturing requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1374034 directly replace the obsolete 1714899 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting method, contact finish, and operating temperature range. The primary difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) and current rating (2.2A versus 1.4A). The higher current rating of the 1374034 is compatible with applications designed for 1.4A.

Q: What are the key differences between the Phoenix Contact and cross-manufacturer substitutes?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1374034 maintains manufacturer continuity and identical contact geometry. HARTING 15210682601000 offers extended mated stacking height flexibility and pick-and-place features. Adam Tech ESMC-F-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R uses phosphor bronze contacts instead of copper alloy and provides three stacking height options. All three meet the core electrical and environmental specifications.

Q: Does packaging format affect connector performance?

A: Packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel) affects supply chain logistics and assembly automation compatibility, not electrical or mechanical performance. Cut Tape is suitable for lower-volume or manual assembly operations. Tape & Reel supports high-speed automated pick-and-place equipment.

Q: Are there compatibility concerns with different contact materials?

A: All substitutes use either copper alloy or phosphor bronze contacts with gold or flash gold mating finishes. These materials are functionally equivalent for the specified operating conditions and do not introduce compatibility issues with standard mating connectors.

Q: What is the significance of the current rating differences?

A: The original 1714899 is rated at 1.4A per contact. Substitute 1374034 is rated at 1.2A, and ESMC-F-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R is rated at 1.2A. These ratings reflect individual contact capacity under specified conditions. Applications designed for 1.4A can use substitutes with equal or higher ratings without derating.
