Pomona Electronics 5699-5 Adapter Connector: Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Pomona Electronics 5699-5 is an adapter connector that converts a 6/32" threaded screw interface to a banana jack interface, finished in green. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing applications and system maintenance. The adapter enables mechanical and electrical compatibility between legacy 6/32" screw-terminated equipment and banana jack-based test and measurement systems.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 5699-5 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Interface Conversion: Both ends must maintain 6/32" threaded screw to banana jack conversion capability
• Manufacturer Consistency: All substitutes are manufactured by Pomona Electronics, ensuring design and quality alignment
• Regulatory Compliance: All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status
• Color Variation: The primary differentiator among substitutes is the connector color (green, black, red), which does not affect electrical or mechanical function

The 5699-5 (green) can be substituted with 5699-0 (black) or 5699-2 (red) based on application requirements and color-coding conventions in the target system.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications currently using the 5699-5 (obsolete status), direct substitution is available through 5699-0 or 5699-2. Both substitute parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, with the distinction being connector color.

Selection between 5699-0 (black) and 5699-2 (red) should be based on system color-coding requirements or industry standards applicable to the target application. Both substitutes are active products with confirmed inventory availability and maintain full ROHS3 and REACH compliance.

The 5699-0 and 5699-2 are functionally interchangeable with the 5699-5 for all applications requiring 6/32" threaded screw to banana jack conversion.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5699-5 be directly replaced with 5699-0 or 5699-2?

A: Yes. Both 5699-0 and 5699-2 provide identical electrical and mechanical conversion from 6/32" threaded screw to banana jack. The only difference is connector color.

Q: Does connector color affect electrical performance?

A: No. Color is a visual identifier only and does not impact electrical characteristics or mechanical function.

Q: Why is the 5699-5 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer in active production. However, substitute parts 5699-0 and 5699-2 remain active and available.

Q: Are all three parts manufactured by the same company?

A: Yes. All parts are manufactured by Pomona Electronics and share the same base product number (5699).

Q: What regulatory certifications apply to substitute parts?

A: Both 5699-0 and 5699-2 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the compliance profile of the original 5699-5.

Q: Which substitute should I select for new designs?

A: Either 5699-0 or 5699-2 is suitable for new designs. Selection should be based on color-coding conventions or system requirements specific to your application.
