Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Keystone Electronics 6016 is based on the following critical parameters that define functional equivalence:

• Connector Type: Tip Jack (Female gender)
• Mating Interface: Standard Tip diameter
• Color Specification: Yellow
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS and REACH requirements
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 classification

The identified substitute, Cinch Connectivity Solutions Johnson 105-0207-200, satisfies these core substitution criteria. Both components function as female tip jack connectors with standard tip mating interfaces and yellow color designation. Both maintain MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification and comply with applicable regulatory frameworks.
