Pomona Electronics 5700-6 Adapter Connector: Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Pomona Electronics 5700-6 is an adapter connector that converts an 8/32" threaded screw interface to a banana jack interface. The connector is finished in blue. This part is currently listed as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and component procurement.

The 5700-6 belongs to the Pomona Electronics 5700 series of screw-to-banana jack adapters, which are available in multiple color variants. Substitute parts within this series maintain identical electrical and mechanical conversion specifications while differing only in color coding and product status.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 5700-6 are determined by the following critical parameters that must remain constant:

• Convert From interface: 8/32" Threaded Screw
• Convert To interface: Banana Jack
• Electrical and mechanical compatibility: Identical
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, EAR99 classification

The substitute parts 5700-0 and 5700-2 maintain all electrical and mechanical specifications identical to the 5700-6. The only variation is color designation: black for 5700-0 and red for 5700-2. Both substitute parts are currently in active product status, unlike the obsolete 5700-6.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 5700-6 is obsolete; however, direct functional equivalents are available. Both 5700-0 and 5700-2 provide identical electrical and mechanical performance with the same interface specifications and regulatory compliance certifications.

Selection between 5700-0 (black) and 5700-2 (red) should be based on color-coding requirements within the application. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original 5700-6.

Inventory availability is higher for both substitute parts, with 5700-0 offering the largest stock position at 1637 units.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5700-0 or 5700-2 be used as direct replacements for 5700-6?

A: Yes. The 5700-0 and 5700-2 provide identical electrical and mechanical conversion from 8/32" threaded screw to banana jack. The only difference is color designation.

Q: Does color affect electrical performance or compatibility?

A: No. Color is a visual identification feature only and does not affect electrical or mechanical function. Selection should be based on application color-coding standards.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The 5700-6, 5700-0, and 5700-2 are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: What is the difference between bulk and standard packaging?

A: All substitute parts are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging does not affect electrical or mechanical specifications.

Q: Why is 5700-6 listed as obsolete?

A: Product status reflects manufacturer lifecycle decisions. Active equivalents (5700-0 and 5700-2) are available for new procurement and ongoing applications.
