Pomona Electronics 5935-2 Banana Jack Connector Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Pomona Electronics 5935-2 is a miniature banana jack connector with solder eyelet termination, designed for panel mount applications requiring reliable electrical connections in compact form factors. This connector is manufactured in red insulation and is currently in active production with 910 units available in new original stock.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the connector series, allowing for interchangeability in applications where color or packaging variations are acceptable.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 5935-2 are identified within the Pomona Electronics 5935 base product series. Substitution is valid when the following core parameters remain constant:

• Connector type: Banana Jack
• Gender: Female
• Plug diameter classification: Miniature
• Mounting configuration: Panel Mount
• Termination method: Solder Eyelet(s)
• Insulation type: Mating End Insulated
• Wire gauge compatibility: 18-22 AWG
• Contact materials: Brass with Nickel finish
• Body material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

The primary variable between parts in this series is connector color, which does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. The 5935-2 (red) and 5935-0 (black) are functionally equivalent within the same product family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 5935-2 and 5935-0 are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.

Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements:

• Choose 5935-2 (red) when circuit design or assembly documentation specifies red connector identification for positive or high-voltage signal paths.
• Choose 5935-0 (black) when circuit design or assembly documentation specifies black connector identification for negative, ground, or low-voltage signal paths, or when higher inventory availability is a procurement consideration.

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, mechanical fit, and termination characteristics within the miniature banana jack connector category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 5935-2 and 5935-0 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical specifications including contact material (brass with nickel finish), wire gauge compatibility (18-22 AWG), and termination method (solder eyelet). The difference is connector color only.

Q: What determines compatibility between 5935 series connectors?

A: Compatibility is determined by matching connector type (banana jack), gender (female), plug diameter classification (miniature), mounting configuration (panel mount), termination method (solder eyelet), and insulation type (mating end insulated). Color variations do not affect compatibility.

Q: Can I substitute the 5935-2 with the 5935-0 in existing assemblies?

A: Substitution is valid from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. However, if the assembly documentation or circuit schematic specifies red connectors for signal identification purposes, the color change should be evaluated against application requirements and assembly procedures.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The 5935-2 packaging specification is not provided in the product data. The 5935-0 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specification before ordering.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulations?

A: Yes. Both the 5935-2 and 5935-0 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory standards for electronic components.
