TE Connectivity 2-87456-1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 2-87456-1 is a 26-position rectangular connector receptacle housing designed for 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch applications. This component belongs to the AMPMODU Mod IV series and features a black polyamide housing with crimp-style female socket contacts. The part is classified as Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Substitute parts are necessary when the primary part number becomes unavailable, when alternative series compatibility is required for system integration, or when specific material or temperature performance characteristics must be matched to application requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TE Connectivity 2-87456-1 is determined by strict parametric matching across the following critical dimensions:

Primary Matching Criteria:

Connector type: Receptacle
Contact type: Female Socket
Number of positions: 26
Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
Number of rows: 2
Row spacing: 0.100" (2.54mm)
Mounting type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
Contact termination: Crimp

Secondary Considerations:

Operating temperature range (minimum -65°C, maximum 105°C or higher)
Insulation material composition
Color designation
Series classification
Compliance certifications (RoHS, REACH)

All substitute parts listed maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications for the core connector interface. Variations in insulation material, operating temperature extremes, and color do not affect functional interchangeability when the primary parameters are matched.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity AMPMODU Mod IV Series (Same Series Substitutes):

Parts 1-87977-1 and 3-87977-8 maintain identical series classification and operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 105°C) as the primary part 2-87456-1. Both are Active status products with full compliance certifications. Part 1-87977-1 carries ROHS3 compliance, while 3-87977-8 carries RoHS compliance. These parts are directly interchangeable within AMPMODU Mod IV system designs.

TE Connectivity Micro Quadlok Series (Alternative Series):

Parts 144935-1 and 185875-1 represent alternative TE Connectivity series with identical mechanical specifications but reduced operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 100°C). Both carry ROHS3 compliance and Active product status. Selection of these parts requires confirmation that the application operating temperature does not exceed 100°C or fall below -40°C.

Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives:

Part 0901430026 (Molex C-Grid III 90143) provides equivalent functionality with ROHS3 compliance and operating range of -55°C ~ 105°C. Part 65043-024LF (Amphenol ICC Mini-PV™) operates from -40°C ~ 105°C with RoHS compliance. Part 65239-013LF (Amphenol ICC DUBOX™) extends the upper operating temperature to 125°C with RoHS compliance but operates from -65°C minimum.

All substitute parts maintain Active product status and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute part 2-87456-1 with 1-925370-3 if color is not a critical design parameter?

A: Yes. Part 1-925370-3 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including 26 positions, 0.100" pitch, 2-row configuration, crimp termination, and operating temperature range of -65°C ~ 105°C. The only difference is the green color versus black. Both parts are AMPMODU Mod IV series with ROHS3 compliance.

Q: What is the temperature limitation when using Micro Quadlok series substitutes (144935-1 or 185875-1)?

A: Micro Quadlok parts operate within -40°C ~ 100°C range, compared to the primary part's -65°C ~ 105°C range. These substitutes are suitable only for applications that do not require operation below -40°C or above 100°C.

Q: Are cross-manufacturer parts (Molex, Amphenol ICC) fully compatible with TE Connectivity connector systems?

A: Cross-manufacturer parts maintain identical pitch (0.100"), position count (26), row configuration (2), and mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line). Mechanical and electrical compatibility is established through these parametric matches. System-level compatibility depends on mating connector specifications and should be verified against the complete assembly design.

Q: What is the difference between ROHS3 Compliant and RoHS Compliant designations?

A: Both designations indicate compliance with Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. ROHS3 represents the most current compliance standard. Parts carrying either designation are acceptable for RoHS-regulated applications. Verify specific regulatory requirements for your end application.

Q: Can I use part 65239-013LF (blue color, -65°C ~ 125°C) as a direct replacement for 2-87456-1 in high-temperature applications?

A: Part 65239-013LF maintains all critical parametric specifications and extends the upper operating temperature to 125°C. The blue color and Amphenol ICC manufacturer designation represent the only differences. This part is suitable for applications requiring operation above 105°C, provided the mating connector and system design accommodate the alternative manufacturer.

Q: Are contacts included with any of these connector housings?

A: No. All listed parts are connector housings only. Contacts are not included and must be sourced separately according to the specific contact type and gauge requirements for your application.

Q: What inventory levels are available for immediate procurement?

A: Inventory quantities are provided in the product data. Current stock levels range from 732 to 5853 pieces across all listed parts. Verify current availability with your component supplier for time-sensitive procurement requirements.
