Amphenol ICC 65863-049 Rectangular Connector Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 65863-049 is an active-status vertical rectangular connector header designed for through-hole board-to-cable/wire applications. This 10-position, 2-row shrouded header with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and solder termination serves as a standard interconnect component in electronic assemblies. Substitute parts are identified to address inventory availability, RoHS compliance requirements, and alternative manufacturer sourcing while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within the specified parameter constraints.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector type (header), contact type (male pin), mating pitch (0.100"/2.54mm), position count (10), row configuration (2 rows), row spacing (0.100"/2.54mm), shrouding style (shrouded 4-wall), mounting method (through hole), termination type (solder), fastening mechanism (latch lock/eject hooks), contact shape (square), and material flammability rating (UL94 V-0).

The substitute parts identified—65863-049LF (Amphenol ICC) and 499206-1 (TE Connectivity)—satisfy these core mechanical and electrical compatibility criteria. Variations in secondary parameters such as contact finish post material, insulation color, RoHS compliance status, and operating temperature range do not preclude substitution when primary form-fit-function parameters remain constant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status and satisfy the core mechanical and electrical compatibility requirements for 10-position, 2.54mm-pitch through-hole header applications.

The 65863-049LF variant offers direct manufacturer equivalence with RoHS compliance, making it suitable for applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements while maintaining identical mechanical form-fit-function with the primary 65863-049 part.

The 499206-1 (TE Connectivity AMP-Latch series) provides cross-manufacturer substitution with documented operating temperature range (-65°C to 105°C) and electrical ratings (1A, 250VAC). Minor dimensional variations exist in contact length and insulation height; these differences remain within the tolerance envelope for standard 2.54mm-pitch header applications. The AMP-Latch series includes a mounting flange feature not present in the Quickie™ series variants.

Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability, RoHS compliance mandates, and specific application thermal or electrical requirements as defined by the end-use circuit design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 65863-049LF be used as a direct replacement for 65863-049?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC within the Quickie™ series and share identical core specifications: 10-position, 2-row, 2.54mm pitch, shrouded 4-wall, through-hole solder termination, and square contact geometry. The primary difference is RoHS compliance status (65863-049LF is RoHS compliant) and insulation color (black vs. blue). Mechanical and electrical compatibility is maintained.

Q: What are the key differences between the Amphenol ICC parts and the TE Connectivity 499206-1?

A: The 499206-1 is manufactured by TE Connectivity under the AMP-Latch series rather than Amphenol ICC's Quickie™ series. While core pitch, position count, and shrouding specifications are identical, the 499206-1 exhibits minor dimensional variations: contact length mating is 0.240" (6.10mm) versus 0.230" (5.84mm), contact length post is 0.110" (2.79mm) versus 0.105" (2.67mm), and insulation height is 0.549" (13.94mm) versus 0.640" (16.26mm). The 499206-1 includes a mounting flange and provides documented operating temperature (-65°C to 105°C) and electrical ratings (1A, 250VAC). These dimensional differences do not preclude mechanical compatibility in standard 2.54mm-pitch header applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 65863-049 and 65863-049LF are supplied in Tray packaging, while the 499206-1 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility but may influence handling, storage, and assembly workflow considerations.

Q: Which part should be selected for RoHS-compliant applications?

A: The 65863-049LF is RoHS compliant and maintains full mechanical and electrical equivalence with the primary 65863-049 part. It is the appropriate selection for applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements.

Q: Can the 499206-1 be used in applications requiring specific operating temperature ranges?

A: The 499206-1 is the only part with documented operating temperature specification (-65°C to 105°C). If the application requires operation within this temperature range, the 499206-1 is suitable. The 65863-049 and 65863-049LF do not provide operating temperature specifications in the available data.

Q: Are all three parts suitable for solder termination assembly?

A: Yes. All three parts specify solder termination and are designed for through-hole PCB assembly. Contact finish specifications (gold or gold-palladium mating surface with tin or tin-lead post finish) are compatible with standard solder reflow and wave soldering processes.
