• Matching fastening method (Threaded)
• Equivalent ingress protection rating (IP67)

Material and Environmental Specifications:

• Both maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level
• Identical ECCN classification (EAR99)
• Matching HTSUS commodity code (8536.69.4020)
• Equivalent operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)

Compliance Status:

• Substitute part is RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected, providing enhanced regulatory compliance compared to the obsolete original part

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The T4113012081-000 serves as the active equivalent for the obsolete 5-2271123-2 based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Alignment: The substitute part maintains active manufacturing status with current inventory availability (1770 pieces in stock), eliminating supply chain discontinuity associated with the obsolete original part.

Regulatory Compliance Enhancement: The substitute part achieves RoHS Compliance and REACH Affected status, providing superior regulatory positioning for applications subject to environmental and hazardous substance restrictions. The original part's "Not applicable" RoHS status reflects its obsolete classification.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: Both connectors maintain identical core specifications: 8-position M12 configuration, right-angle orientation, shielded design, and equivalent environmental ratings. The substitute part's specified electrical parameters (2A current, 30V voltage) and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C) establish functional parity for industrial applications.

Compliance Consistency: Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4020) classifications, ensuring consistent export control and tariff treatment. Moisture sensitivity level remains unchanged at MSL 1 (Unlimited).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the T4113012081-000 directly replace the 5-2271123-2 in existing applications?

A: The T4113012081-000 provides functional equivalence based on shared electrical specifications (8-position, M12 shell size, shielded configuration, right-angle mounting). Both connectors maintain identical moisture sensitivity levels and export control classifications. Physical integration should be evaluated against specific mounting and termination requirements of the application.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?
