Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 5205858-1 is a direct parametric equivalent to the 5205858-2 across all electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications. The primary distinction is product status: the 5205858-2 is obsolete while the 5205858-1 is active.

Compliance Advantage: The 5205858-1 carries RoHS Compliant certification, whereas the 5205858-2 is marked as not applicable. For applications subject to RoHS directives or requiring compliance documentation, the 5205858-1 is the appropriate selection.

Availability: The 5205858-1 is available in active inventory (1300 pieces) with bulk packaging, compared to the 5205858-2 which is obsolete with limited remaining stock (714 pieces).

Functional Compatibility: Both parts are identical in connector configuration, electrical ratings, mechanical mounting, and environmental operating parameters. The 5205858-1 is a direct replacement for the 5205858-2 in all applications where the connector specifications are the controlling requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5205858-1 replace the 5205858-2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 5205858-1 is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications. All connector dimensions, pin configurations, current and voltage ratings, and operating temperature ranges are identical.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are product status and compliance certification. The 5205858-2 is obsolete and not RoHS compliant. The 5205858-1 is active and RoHS compliant. All functional and electrical parameters are identical.

Q: Why should I use the 5205858-1 instead of the 5205858-2?

A: The 5205858-1 is recommended for new designs and ongoing procurement because it is active, carries RoHS compliance certification, and has greater availability. The 5205858-2 is obsolete and should be replaced in active production.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting the 5205858-1 for the 5205858-2?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both connectors are mechanically and electrically identical. They share the same shell size (3/DB/B), pin count (25), mounting type (through-hole right-angle), and termination method (solder).

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The 5205858-2 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 5205858-1 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both the 5205858-1 and 5205858-2 operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 105°C.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect electrical performance?

A: No. RoHS compliance relates to material composition and environmental regulations, not electrical performance. Both parts deliver identical electrical characteristics: 6A current rating, 125V voltage rating, and gold-flashed phosphor bronze contacts.
