Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 2-962340-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

  • Connector type (Plug)
  • Number of positions (4)
  • Pitch specification (0.197" / 5.00mm)
  • Number of rows (1)
  • Contact type (Tab)
  • Mounting type (Panel Mount, Snap-In)
  • Contact termination method (Crimp)
  • Fastening type (Latch Holder)
  • Insulation material (Polybutylene Terephthalate)
  • Base product number (962340)

The identified substitute part 1-962340-1 maintains full equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction is the color variant (Black versus Gray) and associated compliance metadata. Both parts share the same base product number and are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 2-962340-1 and 1-962340-1 are active products manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and maintain full RoHS3 compliance. Selection between these parts is based on the following factors:

2-962340-1 (Gray): This part is the primary specification when gray color is required for application-specific identification or assembly requirements. Current inventory status indicates 2374 pieces in stock.

1-962340-1 (Black): This part serves as a functional equivalent when black color is acceptable or preferred. Current inventory status indicates 1015 pieces in stock. This variant carries MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating and REACH Unaffected status.

Both parts are suitable for direct substitution in applications where connector color does not impact functional performance or system identification requirements. Selection should be based on application color specifications, inventory availability, and compliance documentation requirements specific to the end application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 2-962340-1 and 1-962340-1 electrically and mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, position count, pitch, contact type, mounting configuration, and termination method. The parts differ only in color and associated compliance metadata.

Q: What is the primary difference between these substitute parts?

A: The primary difference is the housing color: 2-962340-1 is gray, while 1-962340-1 is black. Both parts share the same base product number (962340) and are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors.

Q: Can I use 1-962340-1 in place of 2-962340-1 in my assembly?

A: Substitution is permissible when application requirements do not mandate gray color for identification, traceability, or system design purposes. Verify that color specification is not a functional or regulatory requirement for your specific application.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both 2-962340-1 and 1-962340-1 are RoHS3 compliant and carry EAR99 export classification.

Q: What is the contact termination method for these connectors?

A: Both parts utilize crimp contact termination. Contacts are not included with the housing and must be sourced separately.

Q: What mounting configuration do these connectors support?

A: Both parts are configured for panel mount, snap-in installation with latch holder fastening.

Q: What is the pitch specification for these 4-position connectors?

A: The pitch specification is 0.197 inches, equivalent to 5.00mm, for both the 2-962340-1 and 1-962340-1.
