Q: What is the primary difference between the TE Connectivity 5536642-1 and the Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series substitutes?

A: The 5536642-1 is a direct TE Connectivity equivalent with identical specifications. The Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series parts are functionally equivalent but from a different manufacturer. All parts share the same pitch, row configuration, mounting type, termination method, contact finish, and flammability rating. The Metral® series parts specify a current rating of 3A, which is not specified for the original part.

Q: Are all listed substitutes RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 5536642-1 carries ROHS3 compliance. All Amphenol ICC (FCI) parts listed (70430 and 89099 series) are RoHS compliant. The original 536642-1 is RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Does the 70430-124LF meet the same specifications as the main part?

A: The 70430-124LF meets all mechanical and electrical parameters except contact layout. It provides 8 Power contacts instead of 10 Power contacts. This part is suitable only for applications where the reduced power contact configuration is acceptable.

Q: What packaging is available for substitute parts?

A: All substitute parts are supplied in tube packaging, which is standard for backplane connector components.

Q: Is the operating temperature range specified for all substitute parts?

A: The original 536642-1 specifies -55°C to 125°C. The 5536642-1 maintains this range. The Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series (70430 variants) do not specify operating temperature in the provided data. The 89099-101LF specifies -55°C to 125°C, matching the original part.

Q: What is the voltage rating for the substitute parts?

A: The original 536642-1 specifies 30V. The 5536642-1 maintains this 30V rating. The Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series and 89099-101LF do not specify voltage rating in the provided data.
