TE Connectivity 207614-1 Rectangular Connector: Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 207614-1 is a 16-position header connector from the Metrimate series, designed for board-to-cable/wire applications with through-hole, right-angle mounting. This connector features tin-lead contact finish and is rated for 7.5A at 600V across an operating temperature range of -55°C to 130°C.

The 207614-1 carries an obsolete product status. Locating equivalent substitute parts is necessary to support ongoing maintenance, repair, and new design requirements where this connector type is specified or functionally required.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 207614-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Connector Configuration: 16 positions, 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, single row
Mounting and Orientation: Through-hole, right-angle mounting
Electrical Performance: 7.5A current rating, 600V voltage rating
Contact System: Female socket, phosphor bronze material, circular contact shape
Termination Method: Solder termination with latch holder fastening
Environmental Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating, operating temperature -55°C to 130°C
Physical Dimensions: Insulation height 0.433" (11.00mm), contact post length 0.186" (4.72mm)

The substitute part 207614-6 maintains full equivalence across all these parameters. The primary distinction between the main part and substitute relates to contact finish specification and product status classification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 207614-6 serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete 207614-1. Both connectors maintain identical electrical, mechanical, and dimensional specifications across all critical parameters required for functional interchangeability.

The 207614-6 offers the following advantages:

Active Product Status: The 207614-6 is classified as an active product, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support.
Regulatory Compliance: The 207614-6 is ROHS3 compliant and carries REACH Unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.
Contact Finish: The 207614-6 features pure tin contact finish on both mating and post surfaces, compared to the tin-lead finish of the 207614-1.

Selection of the 207614-6 is appropriate for new designs, replacements, and applications where regulatory compliance and long-term component availability are required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 207614-1 and 207614-6 mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mounting type (through-hole, right-angle), pitch (0.197" / 5.00mm), position count (16), and physical dimensions including insulation height and contact post length.

Q: What is the difference between tin-lead and tin contact finishes?

A: The 207614-1 uses tin-lead contact finish, while the 207614-6 uses pure tin finish. Both maintain the same contact finish thickness of 150.0µin (3.81µm). The tin finish in the 207614-6 aligns with RoHS3 compliance requirements.

Q: Can the 207614-6 be used in applications originally designed for the 207614-1?

A: Yes. The 207614-6 maintains full electrical and mechanical equivalence with the 207614-1 across all specified parameters including current rating (7.5A), voltage rating (600V), operating temperature range (-55°C to 130°C), and contact material (phosphor bronze).

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The 207614-1 packaging specification is not provided. The 207614-6 is supplied in tray packaging.

Q: Why is the 207614-1 classified as obsolete?

A: Product status is determined by the manufacturer. The 207614-1 is no longer in active production. The 207614-6 is the active equivalent and recommended for all new applications.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these connectors?

A: The 207614-1 is RoHS non-compliant with vendor-undefined REACH status. The 207614-6 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Both carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications.

Q: What is the current inventory status?

A: The 207614-1 has 994 pieces in stock. The 207614-6 has 808 pieces in stock. Both are listed as new original inventory.
