Material and Construction: The 5749190-1 specifies metal construction with nickel-over-copper plating and includes assembly hardware and strain relief features, providing documented material specifications absent from the obsolete 223250 documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What are the critical parameters that determine if 5749190-1 can substitute for 223250?

A: The substitute relationship is based on three critical parameters: 20-position connector configuration, 180-degree cable exit angle, and shielded design. Both parts match these specifications exactly, ensuring functional compatibility in D-Sub backshell applications.

Q: Why is the 223250 no longer available?

A: The 223250 has reached obsolete product status, indicating TE Connectivity Erni has discontinued manufacturing and support for this component. The 5749190-1 represents the active equivalent within the TE Connectivity product portfolio.

Q: Are there any mechanical compatibility concerns when substituting 5749190-1 for 223250?

A: Both parts are specified as 20-position, 180-degree shielded backshells within the D-Sub connector category. Mechanical compatibility is determined by these shared specifications. The 5749190-1 is documented as a two-piece backshell assembly with round cable exit, providing standard backshell functionality.

Q: What compliance certifications does the substitute part carry?

A: The 5749190-1 is RoHS Compliant and classified under EAR99 ECCN, meeting current environmental and export control requirements. The obsolete 223250 carries ECCN designation as "OBSOLETE" with no current compliance documentation.

Q: Is the 5749190-1 available in the same packaging as the 223250?

A: The 5749190-1 is supplied in Box packaging. The original 223250 packaging specification is not documented in available technical records.

Q: What is the inventory status for the substitute part?

A: The 5749190-1 maintains active inventory status with 2154 pieces documented as new original stock, providing immediate availability for component procurement and production requirements.
