Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 5-1241170-5 is determined by electrical and mechanical compatibility across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Criteria:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (5)
• Contact type (Blade Pin)
• Contact finish (Tin)
• Cable termination method (IDC)

Mechanical Compatibility Criteria:

• Pitch spacing (0.197" / 5.00mm)
• Number of rows (1)
• Fastening type (Latch Lock)
• Mounting type (Free Hanging / In-Line)
• Features (Dual Wire Exit)

The substitute part 5-1534072-5 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all parameters listed above. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute is product status: the main part is obsolete while the substitute is active, and packaging differs (main part status unspecified versus bulk packaging for substitute).
